Fun Variety of Molded Cookies

I used several items I used to create the textures in these cookies:

• For the 4 cookies with knitted textures, I used silicone texture mats from Ellam Sugarcraft
• The waffle-type and fish scale textures are made with a metal cookie stamp by Nordic Ware
• The cobblestone texture is made by a texture mat from FMM
• The two small brooches in the center (and the small brooch in the lower left corner) are made with a Karen Davies silicone mold
• The rose on the far right is made with a Wilton silicone cake tool
• The rib cage is from a Halloween silicone mold from The Cookie Countess
• The Celtic knotwork was made with a First Impressions mold
• The small cabbage peony is from Molds on etsy.com
• The rose on the bottom is made with a discontinued Martha Stewart silicone mold
• The sequin texture is made a Karen Davies sequins cupcake mold

I used a traditional springerle recipe for these cookies and kept them plain because I am fascinated by the stark color of the baked cookies.

I love the stark color of the springerle dough too!  And the Irish girl in me is loving the theme!  Fabulous.

OMG - fantastic

Perfect shapes and textures....

These are very beautiful I wouldn't mind having all those moldes myself

Oh I love these!! Did you use mats or molds (both?) or even some other way to create these beautiful cookies? Awesome work!!

All of the above!  I used texture mats, molds, and a few metal cookie stamps.  Thank you!

I agree, these cookies look perfect just as they are! 

I like that they look like pieces of ceramic. 

Ohhhh! I think this is the best of all the cookies posted in this challenge! And there are Springerle cookies! I want to have cookie molds!!!!!!!@ and bake Springerleeee!

Congratulations, great work!!!!!

Thank you for all the details regarding the molds. Wonderful.

Very pretty set! 

AMAZING!!!!! I love them! ❤️❤️❤️

beautiful set!

So since you used the Springerle cookie recipe, after you removed the cookies from the molds, did you let them rest for 24hrs before baking them to maintain the relief?  

I bake Springerle every Christmas and I've never thought to create marvelous cookies such as yours with the varieties of molds you've used.    Beautiful.   Pip

P.S.  How thick did you make your cookies?

Yes, I did leave the cookies rest after molding.  The recipe I used calls for 8 to 12 hours of resting, so these rested for almost 12 hours.

I rolled the cookies to about 3/8-inch before molding them.

Fabulous ,  love love love !

These are amazing!!!! Congratulations 

So amazing, Chris!

I love these, so pretty, great textures

These are so Beautiful Chris - I wish I knew how all the Springerle cookies I see are so white - mine came out still quite yellow. Love your selection, and quite envious of your mats/molds! lol.
