Basic Cookie Decorating Supplies. Perfect Sugar Cookie Cut-Outs. Perfectly Stenciled Cookies with Magnets. Do you have cookie friends? If not, you should. I have a cookie friend who’s kind of a genius. You’ve heard the old saying two heads are better than one? Well Kim is kind of like two heads. One night while our husbands were doing the things they do {football and X-box} we were having one of our cookie “text talks”.

Kim had an idea that magnets might be the perfect way to hold wiggly stencils in place. That’s the good thing about cookie friends. For perfectly stenciled cookies you will need: A non-aluminum cookie sheet {make sure it’s magnetic}Simple magnets from the craft storeStencilParchment Paper {for easy cleanup}Airbrush or food color spray Cover the cookie sheet with parchment paper and place eight magnets {two in each corner} in a square around the cookie. Position the stencil over the cookie and use four more magnets to hold the stencil in place. You can use your fingers or a chopstick to move the magnets so the stencil is taut.

The key to a perfect finish is a using a light hand.
