Thank you so much. I think that might be the problem. I used parchment paper from a roll and just laid it flat with no tape. I am going to try what you said and tape it down, very tightly! Your elf cookies look so cute!

I also use my transfers in such a way so that a slightly uneven bottom really does not matter all that much as in when I am making eyeballs for face cookies, I flood the cookie, and then "float" the eyeball in the face and even push it in a little bit. So here I made all of the eyes and ears as transfers, and inserted the eyes when I flooded the cookie. I added the ears when I put the trim for the hats on.
