linzer step i: cut

Posted by j. (taipei, Taiwan) on 4 March 2008 in Food & Cuisine and Portfolio.

first step of making linzer heart cookies, rolling out the dough and cutting. of course, you might be a college student like me and unable to get your hands on two concentric heart cookie cutters, so you'll have to get a little creative... i made my cookie cutters from an aluminum soda can. cut 1" metal strips, bend, and tape together to form hearts. hearts are a lot easier to make than other shapes thankfully.
