Reply to "Layering sugar cookies on platter...?"

Natalie, The best thing you can do is experiment with stacking two completed cookies earlier in the day and seeing what happens before you arrange the whole tray. I have had big trouble with buttery bottoms leaving shiny spots on the icing of the cookies below and ruining them. Even if I allowed the cookies to sit on paper towels or deli wrap, I could see the butter marks. My final solution was to keep cutting back on the amount of butter until the problem disappeared! Now I can make the cookie trays with cookies layered flat to form a big turkey, flower or wreath. Try cutting the butter in the recipe back a half stick and see what happens. Nobody has complained about the cookie flavor being lacking. Good Luck!
