How to Cut Dough for Angel Cookies

Video Transcript

"Hi! This is Josiah Owen with Expert Village and today we'll be talking about making our angel winged cookies. Now at this point, we have rolled our dough out. We need to cut our cookie out. If you have an angel cookie cutter, you can use that. If not, just grab a toothpick. Start off by putting 2 dots about 3/4 of an inch away from each other. That'll be our starting point. We're going to go ahead and etch out the head. Do almost a half circle. From there, we're going to go out at an upward angle and start making the wings. Do that for both sides. From that, we're going to come down to the waist. That'll be our next stopping point. Go back up to the tip. From the waist, we're going to go out about to the same angle as the tip of the wing. Come out on both sides. This is going to be their dress. Just cut across the bottom all the way. That's how you etch out your cookie."
