How to Fix Cookies That Stick to the Bottom of the Pan

Reassemble broken cookies instead of throwing them in the trash.

Sometimes a cookie will stick on to a cookie sheet when you try to remove it. Instead of throwing out the stuck-on cookie, adhere it back to the larger part. Cookies may stick to the pan if the cookie burns or the pan was ungreased. The cookies can even stick to non-stick pans. Icing will hold the cookie pieces in place, but the cookie can fall apart easily if dropped or handled too much.

Things You'll Need

• Spatula
• Icing
• Knife

Instructions

1. Slide the spatula under the cookie. Turn the cookie upside down.

2. Scrape the stuck piece of cookie off the cookie sheet.

3. Spread a thin layer of icing on the underside of the cookie where the piece is missing.

4. Press the broken piece of cookie into the spot it fits. Let the icing harden for two hours before turning over. If it's humid in the room, the icing will need more time to dry.
