Submitted by: Snixie

2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
2 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt

to 8 minutes at 400 degrees.
Basic preparation:
Season your new cookie stamps before using by brushing them with cooking oil. A
tooth brush is the ideal tool to clean the cookie stamp. Never season your
stamps with butter! Each time before mixing a batch of dough, wipe the stamp
again with cooking oil. This helps prevent sticking. Keep your stamps warm while
you are using them. This also helps prevent sticking and clogging. When
finished, clean the face of your cookie stamps with not water and a soft brush.
let dry.
Avoid recipes that contain baking powder or baking soda as the design becomes
less distinct when the cookie rises.
