Bottle Cap Cookies

We had a little party for the Winter Solstice this year and we wanted to make sugar cookies, but we didn't have any cookie cutters. We made a few using the old-fashioned upside-down glass method, and then went hunting for other things around the house that we could use.

We made a big batch of adorable bite-sized cookies, using a bottle cap as a cookie cutter. Take one bottle cap and one wine cork and a hot glue gun. Hot glue the cork onto the bottle cap. Now you can use the cork as a handle to punch out your cookies.

Make your favorite sugar cookie recipe. I learned from a recipe this time that you can use powdered sugar instead of flour to ease the rolling of the dough. The cookies are small, so they'll cook a bit faster than normal. Decorate them with your favorite icing and candies.
