How To Make Fun And Cute Cookies Shapes Without Cookie Cutter
Easy fun cookie designs with no cookie-cutter we can make with simple kitchen tools like a spoon or knife. I remember, my first cookies I designed with a fork and with a glass with design on the bottom, used as a stamp when I was at Hight school. I am sure it is a well-known old fashion way to make an easy design on cookies. However, with the Internet, we can find so many more clever cookie shapes ideas without any cookie cutters. So easy and fun to make. Check out these cuties!
Cookie shapes made without a cookie-cutter:
- Pig’s face.
- Smily face.
1. Easy Pig Face Cookie Without Cookie Cutter
We need just a paring knife and plate to make these pig’s faces. The batter can be any, just should not have too much rise when baking. The perfect is if we use a sugar cookie recipe. I saw some designs with a pig’s snout made out of a small piece of dough but it makes more complications and takes longer to make cookies than the technique I shared with you. This design is so easy because we don’t need to make many small details on the face, just one cut, and a clip. Eyes I made it with two tiny drops of melted chocolate. However, we can make eyes for the pigs easier, just 2 edible seeds and done. Seeds can be black sesame, flax seeds, or raisins, for example. Another option, we can make eyes with a small straw out of dry fruits. For example, cherry, plums, dates… Endless possibilities to make eyes for this cookie design!
We need:
Paring knife
Plate
Technique 1
- Make a ball from cookie batter.
2. Press the ball with a plate and make round shapewith desired hight.
3. Make the cut on the top as on the photo.
4. Fold the top towards the bottom and we have ears for our pig ready.
5. Make a clip on the bottom and we have pig’s snout.
6. For a more realistic look, make two dots with a wooden pick on the pig’s snout.
We can make eyes too the same way. However, I like more make eyes with dark chocolate. Just 2 dots and pig’s eyes ready.
7. As you can see with simple kitchen tools like plate and knife I make so cute design cookies in the shape of pig face.
In the photo below, some of the pigs have their ears up and some are still down after baking. They are so cute both ways!
2. Smily Faces Cookie Design With Spoon And Straw
This simple and fun cookie design is my favorite! Easy and a great project for kids to make. We can also make a surprising face cookie, just use a instead of a spoon larger straw. Squeeze slightly the straw on the sides or leave the round shape. Both ways will be cute. I show on the page the technique to make the mouth with a spoon.
We need:
Spoon
Straw

2. Make a mouth with a spoon or make a surprised mouth with a larger straw as an option.
