Sweet Pressed Cookie Stamp


I dug out my favorite cookie recipe I make during the holidays to try with the Sweet Press set from Stampin' Up. It worked so perfect! So exciting to see my go-to recipe work so easily. After such success with my butter cookie I tested out a cream cheese cookie recipe. As you can see, both turned out beautifully. Only problem now is which one to grab when reaching for a cookie! Enjoy the recipes below and let me know how yours turn out.

To get a hold of you own Sweet Press Cookie Stamp set, contact me. It's only 16.95 (plus shipping and handling) and available until January 3rd.

ROLL dough into 1/4 inch thickness on lightly floured surface. Cut with 2 1/2 inch cookie cutter. Place cookies on cookie sheet. Dip Sweet Press into flour and stamp each cookie, dipping back in flour after each stamp.
