Mustache Cookie Pops

Mustache cookie pops - the first edible disguise!  Make your own cookie cutters from soda cans, then use them to make awesome mustache cookies - and put them on sticks.  Instant mustache party!  

Saucy up your next event with these mustache cookie pops.  Everyone loves a prop they can eat!

Step 1: Make your cookie dough

Make a solid cookie dough recipe.  I strongly recommend Perfect Sugar Cookies, as this recipe is formulated specifically to be used with complex cookie designs and not spread too much while baking.   For this batch, I used half vanilla extract and half almond extract - just to mix it up a bit.

While the dough is chilling, it's time to make your cookie cutters!

I made these for Wendy's baby shower.... and not only were the cookies delicious, but they were sturdy and strong enough to hold up to people waving them around at the party, and posing with them in photos!

Thanks for the great i'ble miss super amazing food editor!

Ok, I only had time to make 2 cookie cutters because it was getting kind of tricky to control all the sharp edges with a three year old around...but, here they are and I have my dough in the fridge to chill. I'll be handing out these pretty cookies for my little season finale Downton Abbey party. I know no one rocks a stache on the show, I just thought they were fancy. Thanks for the stencil!

Fun theme and funny mustache photos! I love the idea of making your own cookie cutters out of soda cans. Great tip! It will definitely come in handy next time I bake sugar cookies!

With the help of these shortbread shenanigans, I shall share the joy of shooting a shot of me showing a showy moustache, that shan't be a shabby shade of shadowy facial hair, but shall indeed be a shake up; shortbread moustaches!

Ahh, the associated chivalry...!
