Vintage Inspired Cookies

These cookies were inspired by the drawer pulls on the computer desk in my bakeshop, which I recently picked up at a used furniture store. I was immediately drawn to it because it reminded me of something out of my childhood bedroom!

These cookies were made using my Orange Vanilla Spice recipe, which is available in my tutorial shop. I cut the dough into 2-½" squares by hand with a ruler and a paring knife.

  2. Dear Amber, every new cookie...a surprise, this set is absolutely gorgeous! Now I understand when you write: "I've been inspired looking at my new deskstop", everything around becomes a project if you are a cookie-aholic, it's like a illness...I'm sick too, it's your fault!!! Happy to be a cookie-aholic!
