Prepare your surface - rolling your dough straight onto a benchtop may cause it to stick.Chill your dough in the fridge or freezer for a few minutes prior to cutting to help your cookies keep their shape. Chill the dough - if your dough is warm, the butter inside will start to melt and make it more sticky.Avoid skewers, as you'll just poke right through the raw dough. You can use a blunt tool to poke them out, like a chopstick or the handle of some cutlery. If you have a cookie cutter with delicate shapes, the dough may not come out even with flour. If you find the dough is sticking to your cookie cutters each time, dip it into flour before each cut. Make sure you are using the right side as you cut. We know this is basic, but every cookie cutter has a sharp side (for cutting the dough) and a blunt side (for pressing into with your fingers). Use the sharp side of your cookie cutters.Tried cutting out a cookie and had problems?
