Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare Your Dough

• Follow your favorite gingerbread or cookie recipe to prepare the dough.
• Chill the dough as needed, according to your recipe.

Step 2: Prepare Your Workspace

• Lightly dust your rolling surface with flour to prevent sticking.
• Place a portion of the dough on the floured surface.

Step 3: Roll Out the Dough

• Use the rolling pin to roll the dough to an even thickness, typically about 1/4 inch (6 mm).

Step 4: Cut Out the Shapes

• Select your preferred size of gingerbread man cookie cutter (3 x 4 cm, 6 x 4.5 cm, or 6 x 8 cm).
• Press the cookie cutter firmly into the rolled dough to cut out the shape.
• Gently remove the excess dough around the cutter.
• Repeat the process until you have used all the dough.

Step 5: Transfer to Baking Sheet

• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper (optional) for easy cleanup.
• Carefully transfer the cut-out shapes onto the baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.

Step 6: Bake the Cookies

• Preheat your oven according to your recipe’s instructions.
• Bake the cookies as directed, usually between 8-12 minutes, until the edges are lightly browned.

Step 7: Cool and Decorate

• Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes.
• Transfer them to a cooling rack to cool completely.
• Once cool, decorate your gingerbread men as desired with icing and other toppings.

Care Instructions

• After use, wash the cookie cutters with warm, soapy water or place them in the dishwasher.
• Ensure they are completely dry before storing to prevent rust.
