    Question: grease the pan or use parchment paper?

    Hi! For best results, you want to use an uncoated, ungreased cookie sheet. Press down dough in circular motion. Turning stamp side to side to release. For additional tips or questions please reach out to our Customer Experience Team at info@nordicware.com

    These are the best!

    These cookies have a wonderful flavor however it was difficult using the stamp cut-outs. I followed the directions exactly but I had a real hard time getting the dough out of the stamp! Next time I will add more flour so that the dough is not quite so soft, however I know this will change the texture of the cookie. 🙁 I will send a review when I make that change!

    Hi! If the dough is too soft, we recommend chilling the dough as well as chilling an ungreased aluminum baking sheet you plan to stamp on and bake with. That will help the dough stick to the baking sheet. You can also spray your cookie stamps with baking spray or roll the dough in granulated sugar before stamping to help with the release. If you are still having problems, please reach out to our customer service team at info@nordicware.com. Thank you.

    Delicious cookies! Used Fiori di Sicilia in a batch instead of Almond extract which was very good too. Hint: Don’t let butter get too soft prior to creaming with sugar. I also froze my cookie sheet 15-20 minutes before baking so they didn’t flatten too much. The stamps worked beautifully just coating with sugar prior to stamping.
