THE Best Cookie Cutters Bar None
Feb 27, 2010 | From the kitchen of Rose
Those of you who have seen my Christmas Cookie book know how much I value my collection of amazing cookie cutters from Hammer Song. These cookies are so exquisitely crafted they even reside in the Smithsonian.
Recently, Betsy Cukla of Hammer Song sent me a photo of some of her new cookie cutters with Easter themes illustrating the imaginative way one can decorate them. Under the photo is written: "cookie cutters to make you laugh, cry, giggle or remember" Yes indeed!
Betsy also offers cookie decorating classes. e-mail her at: hammersongtin@centurytel.net
You an also order the cutters directly from her.

Hi rose, I live in India and would like to purchase these cookie cutters. Do they ship them to India?
Alternately, are they available in Dallas? My brother lives in Dallas and I could ask him to pick them up for me

Rose, thanks for the advice on those cookie cutters. There are so many brands out there -- and they're not all great! Thanks for saving us some money, as well (by not buying the wrong ones)
best regards,

I love the Hammersong cutters. I think my favorite may be the lion and lamb one, which we use for my daughter's March birthday and Christmas.
Guillermo, the Hammersong cutters come with tips on working with cookie dough and even a recipe. What I've found works for me is to let the dough get a bit softer/warmer to the touch than you're probably used to and use a well-floured cutter. After cutting, I arrange the unbaked cookies on a parchment sheet and refrigerate or freeze them until they are firm again. Takes a bit more work, but the intricate designs are so worth it.
If you're looking for a recipe, I've been using the "Land O Lakes Best Ever Butter Cookies" recipe since I was a little girl.
