Making Christmas cookies is a time-honored tradition in many households. Cut-out cookies are a particular favorite, especially among children. If you'd like to start your own tradition, there are a few things to know about cookie cutters before you start shopping.

  1. Metal or plastic? Cookie cutters are usually made of copper, tin or plastic. Metal cookie cutters are sharper than plastic, so they can cut through tough doughs more easily. Plastic cutters are less expensive, but they can warp if stored improperly, i.e. in a very warm place or near a sunny window. If you decide to buy metal cookie cutters, there's not really a difference between copper and tin. Copper tends to be a sturdier metal, so if you are buying very large cookie cutters, copper is a better choice. It is the most expensive option of the three. However, if you're making small to medium-sized cookies, tin will work just as well as copper.
  2. With a handle or without? Some cookie cutters, especially metal ones, have a wooden knob on top, or a rubber hand-grip. This can be useful if you are cutting out many cookies at once, or have trouble gripping small objects. Cutters with handles will cost a bit more, so you may want to purchase just one and see if it makes a difference before you buy a whole set.
  3. Individual cutters or a set? When you buy cookie cutters, especially Christmas ones, you'll notice that many are sold as a complete set. For example, you may see a set of six stars which nest inside of one another or a variety of Christmas shapes. If you will use all or at least, most, of the cutters in a set, they can be a really good value. One fun creation that you can create with a set of nested stars is a Christmas tree. Simply cut out two stars of each size, frost the centers, then stack them. Start with the two largest at the bottom and offset them so that the points of one star are in between the points of the next. Continue with the next largest, and so on. When your tree is finished, you can decorate it however you like.
