1. Bit of tan clay kneaded until smooth. Make a nice fat snake, about 1 inch diamter.
2. Slice 1/2 inch pieces from the snake.


3. Roll each slice into a ball that is smooth with no cracks.
4. Place plastic lid ontop and give an even handed push down.
We want the ball to have flattened out about 1 inch diameter and 1/4 inch thick.


5. Use your plastic piping tip like a thimble, and gently push into the center.
Careful! Don't cut through- only need to make an indent.
Use the back end of the paintbrush brush to tap down that little button.


6. If you are going to use as a charm or pendant,
now is the time to insert an eyepin.
7. Toothbrushes are perfect for creating texture in baked goodies!
Pouncing the tooth brush gently across the top and sides of your little
cookie will add a perfect cookie texture.
8. Now scratch the surface of your brown chalk.
Lightly dust the edges of your cookie with a soft brown color.

9. Bake your batch of cookies according to your polymer clays instructions.
To help your cookies from literally burning their edges-
use a piece of foil wrap to cover while they are in oven.
10. Once your cookies have cooled, we can fill them.
11. I like to use the liquid paint tubes. Their consistancy is easy to work with,
dries glossy, comes in an endless amount of colors, and extremely durable.
12. My two favorite are dark brown for chocolate, red for cherry filling.


TIP This basic cookie looks super cute with scalloped edges.
