I made the dough for these on Tuesday and last night rolled out 3/4 of the dough. Slice and bake are definitely easier but I had just purchased my very first set of cookie cutters and I wanted to use them. It was time consuming and I should mention that I used powdered sugar instead of flour when rolling them out. I know some people complained about them tasting too flour-y. A few I sprinkled some sprinkles and some others are plain so I can ice them or make little sammiches out of ‘em. That’s the good news.
The bad news is that J went on a little four day excursion to Japan so that he can use up his vacay time before he quits his current job and took my camera with him because his is somewhere amongst a bunch of boxes in a storage room since he moved out of his apartment and in with me for the next four weeks. So I don’t have pics. I will save a few for some snapshots when he gets back on Tuesday, but most of them are getting shipped off to friends for the holidays. It didn’t even make that many anyway. I don’t know how Dorie squeezed 50 out of that dough. And I do plan on making the butter jam cookies for next week so my TWD may bleed into Wednesday until my beloved J returns.
