Button Cookies
How to make Button Cookies tied together with twine. An adorable cookie for baby showers or the holidays as Christmas cookies!
Equipment
- Shot glass shaped like the one in the button cookie video
- Wax paper
- Parchment paper
- Baker’s twine or thin ribbon
- Rolling Pin
- Baking sheet
Ingredients
- 1 tube Refrigerated sugar cookie dough (or homemade sugar cookie dough, if preferred)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350℉
- Prepare your work surface with wax paper
- Roll out sugar cookie dough
- Use the shot glass as a cookie-cutter
- Place the round cookie dough cutouts on a baking sheet prepared with parchment paper
- Bake for 6 minutes or JUST until the edges of the cookies become golden. Sugar cookie dough burns easily and it will continue to cook as the cookies cool on the baking sheet
- Immediately after removing them from the oven, use the bottom of the shot glass to gently press the center of the cookies in.
- Use the straw to poke 2 round holes in each cookie
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet
- Once cooled, tie them together with baker’s twine
