I know that this question has probably been asked before, but here goes. How thick should I make a cookie if I want to put it on a stick for a bouquet? All answers are appreciated. thumbs_up.gif

I roll mine 1/2 inch thick and insert the sticks before baking. I push them really far into the cookies too. Good luck!

I roll the dough out between the handles of two wooden spoons, so for me, it's whatever the thickness of a wooden spoon handle is.

I roll my dough out to 3/16" thick (right after mixed I do not chill the dough), cut, freeze for 15-20 mins min (overnight if possible), bake, then I put my bamboo skewers into the cookie about 2 mins after it is out of the oven, the cookie is soft enough to accept it and as the cookie cools it shrinks a little over the skewer, never had a problem loosing a cookie this way.

This also allows me to bake a lot at one time instead of the 4 at a time that I can fit in my oven witht he stick.

What type of stick are you using in the cookie?
When are you inserting the stick into the cookie?
