Once again, a design to please those who prefer a simpler cookie, without icing. All you need is a rolling pin and even the painting is optional. The cookies will look beautiful without added color. But you know that I have a hard time leaving a cookie naked.

The particular rolling pin I used is shown below…

It comes from one of my favorite sellers at Etsy, you can visit it with a click here. The only thing to keep in mind is that the rolling pins come all the way from Ukraine, so if you are in a hurry, it won’t work for you. But there are so many wonderful designs, it is hard to resist getting “a few”.

The most important thing to consider when relying on embossing rolling pins or stamps, is to use a recipe that keeps its shape during baking, so preferably one that lacks leavening agents. One of my favorites is in the end of this blog post from last year. Works well and it is delicious!
As to the paints used in this set, they were all luster powders from SugarArt (click here for their website). You can use Everclear or vodka, I opted for vodka in this case, it gives slightly more time to work with the suspensions before it dries.
