  Hand-Shaped Cookie How-To’s 

Hand-shaped cookies require you to shape cookie dough like you would for peanut butter cookies or Russian tea cakes. Try these easy-handling tips to make cookie shaping go smoothly:

  • If dough is too soft to handle, cover and refrigerate about 1 hour or until firm.
  • Cookie dough still sticking to your palms? Try this quick trick: Occasionally wet your hands with cold water when shaping cookie dough into balls.
  • For even baking, make sure cookies are of the same shape and size.
