Reasons To Love Our Cookie Cutters

Quick Tips For Cookie Making

  • Split Your dough up – Split your cookie dough into four separate and smaller sections & wrap each in saran wrap.
  • Use Cold Dough – Refrigerate your cookie dough sections for at least an hour before you start to work with them.
  • One section at a time – Pull one section from the fridge to work with. Leave the remaining sections in the fridge.
  • Make use of the fridge – If you find you’re not working quickly enough and the cookie dough is getting warm and sticky, re-wrap the dough you’re working with and swap it for another cooled section of dough.
  • Don’t press too hard – You don’t need to press hard to get a good indentation. If you’re heavy-handed and press too hard the dough might want to stick to the cutter.
  • Optional: Cool The Cookies – To get ultra pristine cookies with a design that really pops, before they get warm, place the raw cookies in the fridge for at least 10 minutes before you pop them in the oven (trade secret!)
