Rolled and Cut Cookies Tips:
-Avoid using too much flour when rolling your cookies .This will make the cookies tough !If the dough is too sticky ,throw it into the refrigerator for a few minutes to chill it ,then try again.
-Try not to overwork the dough .This will also make the cookies tough .
-Roll the dough between two sheets of waxed paper or parchment paper .If you're working in batches , keep the other dough in the fridge while you're rolling .If you need to roll the dough ahead of time ,you can stack sheets of rolled chilled dough in the fridge on a cookie sheet !
-Use good quality metal cookie cutters .They should be thin and sharp .If you need to use plastic ,try dipping the cutter in warm vegetable oil between cuts to make an easier , cleaner cut .
