Questions and answers

Frequently Asked Questions

How do heart cookies keep their shape while baking in the oven?
Chilling the cut dough before baking solidifies the butter, which stops the edges from spreading out in the warm oven.
What gives royal icing its smooth, glossy finish on cookies?
Royal icing is made from powdered sugar and egg whites or meringue powder, which dries into a hard, smooth shell.
