Baking Tips:

  • You don’t have to pipe these cookies: You can skip the piping step and opt for an easier method by dividing the dough into small sections, rolling them out, and then using a fork to press them down. This simplifies the process and yields similar results.

  • Piping nozzle size: I suggest opting for a 13mm star nozzle size when piping your cookies; of course, feel free to choose any size that suits your cookie size preference, as it will ultimately determine the final look of your baked treats.

  • Parchment paper: To prevent the parchment paper from shifting on your baking trays as you pipe your cookies, a helpful tip is to pipe a small amount of batter onto the corners of the tray before placing the parchment paper over it. This simple trick ensures that the paper stays securely in place during the piping process.

  • Don’t over fill piping bag: I highly recommend not overfilling the piping bag with the cookie dough. It's best to divide the dough in half before piping to ensure better control and precision in your decorating process. This simple step will make the piping much easier to manage and give you more consistent results.

  • Don’t over bake: Only bake these cookies until the edges turn a beautiful golden brown colour, ensuring that they are perfectly crisp on the outside while remaining delightfully soft and chewy on the inside.
