#1 Ultimate peanut butter cookies
Sure, you could use a fork to create that classic crisscrossed top to your peanut butter cookies. Using a clean cooling rack is faster, easier, and looks so much better.
Take three flavors of dough, create three dough balls, place them next to each other, and then press them under the bottom of a glass while twisting it. You’ll end up with gorgeous swirl cookies.
Get out your citrus juicer and place a ball of dough into the inside tip. Press it in lightly and then turn over your juicer and gently knock it on the table to let your cookie fall free.
If you have any glasses with embossed designs, this is the perfect time to get some extra use out of them. Roll them over your cookies to create something unique but easy to duplicate.
Create each cookie’s base with five small balls of dough, then add cocoa powder to the remaining dough. Take that dough, form cookies, press a cooling rack into them, and then place them on your smaller dough balls to create turtles.
If you have a deep-fry skimmer around, these are a perfect Halloween treat. Just press the skimmer into the surface of your cookies before baking them.
Take four small pieces of dough, flatten them out, and roll them up together. Next, all you need to do is cut your rolled dough in half and spread the new petals.
Making these crosses is simple. Press the back of a fork into chocolate powder and then press it into the side of an unbaked cookie. Repeat three more times to create the cross.
Make your candy cane shaped cookies really stand out and taste amazing. Drizzle them with melted white chocolate before topping them with shreds of actual candy cane.
Dip the end of a clean beer bottle into chocolate powder and then press it into the top of your cookies. You’ll end up with the perfect chocolate rings.
Do you want cookies that look just like buttons? Use the back of a bottle cap to create an indent and then a straw to poke four holes into the center of each cookie.
Sure, you could have boring ginger cookies, but why? Look through the drawers in the kitchen to see if you have one of these around and use the side pressed into the tops of your cookies to create the design.
Place bubble wrap over your cookie dough and press it down to make an impression on the surface. After that, all you need to do is cut your cookies into hexagons.
