Frankenclown

Challenge #6 – Frankencookie.  This challenge was hard!  Although I frequently use shaped cookie cutters, I have never combined any.  When I want a specific shape, I just repurpose one cutter or make up a template and draw around it.  I really struggled with what to come up with, throwing out a lot of ideas that just didn’t work.  The start of this idea came because I was repurposed the icecream Sunday cutter for the cookies I made for the food pantry this week.  I realized that I was cutting of the foot of the cookie to turn it into a vase. One thing led to another and I thought, “clown pants!” I even screamed it out loud and scared the dog.

Frankencookies can certainly be challenging but you managed to come up with a winner. Looks like one thing led to something that turned out amazing!

Gorgeous and so clever, dear Lisa!♥️

That's a pretty complex shape and you nailed it! How fun it is being on this journey with you!

Absolutely cool dear Lisa!! I have never made such cookies...
You are so hard-working my friend!! ❤️ @LisaF

Thanks for tips.

I often use this technique. sometimes I connected 2 parts of different cutters, cut parts & put them tightly to each other. I call this compound cookie. After baking the dough keep together.
