Prompt of the day “Cookie Cutter” - There Creation Is So Much Better
You must be thinking of a shape,
Maybe one resembles an ape.
A million to choose from,
None of which are as fun.
As the checkerboard cookie creation,
Only two colours but with imagination.
A scheme of contrast unfolds,
Every bit of dough moulds.
Into the final design,
Not until the right time.
To cut your cookies free,
See what they may be.
From a single tube of dough,
Chopping them in a row.
Not your usually cookie cutter,
There creation is so much better.

You sound like a bit of a cookie cutter aficionado!
It’s the midweek prompt delivery team here with the challenge for today: https://steemit.com/freewrite/@mariannewest/day-467-5-minute-freewrite-wednesday-prompt-wild-and-woolly
Lol I am a professional baker 😉 I couldn’t even begin to imagine how many cookies I’ve made. In the industry only things like gingerbread men we use a normal cookie cutter, rolling it out and cutting has lots of “wasted” material and consumes a lot of time. Typically for a firm dough we will use a knife on a tube of cookie dough cutting to the size needed and for a softer dough we have a machine that spits out 2 at a time every 5 seconds or so. All about saving time helping to increase profit margins on the cookies as labour is the largest cost.

I could never be a baker. I'd eat as many cookies as I baked!
Ahaha depends how long you do it, eventually you tire of all the sweets 😉

most annoying is get it clean
Usually checkerboard cookie dough is firm, must use flour for rolling it out and water with a brush to make the meeting edges stick when you stack and shape it. Cutting is same idea use a water lubricated knife and cut clean, ultimately clean up of these cookies is a breeze.

Simple and lovely, though to tell you the truth I don't understand it at all. A cookie cutter. 🤔

Basically the cookie cutter is a knife and you create the cookies by stacking different colour doughs together to make a design known as checkerboard cookies rolled out into a tube and cut.... it’s the designs you can make that I love from a swirl pattern to even character shapes if your talented 👍
Thanks for stopping in my friend 🙏
