Cookie Log

December 17, 2004
9:300pm I've got an idea! I get out some hard candy and my Valve Hammer Editor (a very early version) and smash the candy in a bag.


9:35pm I find two cups that have about 2 cm difference in diameter.


9:36pm I make some gingerbread dough (recipe out of The Joy of Cooking)


I take a chunk of dough and flour my marble surfave and the top of the dough chunk


and roll it out with a rolling pin


I slightly press the larger cup into the dough (not all the way through) then center the smaller cup, and push down through.


Then remove the inside


I cut out the outside by using the template from the bigger cup with an exacto knife, and free hand the 'corner'


I use the innside part from above to make the lambda


Free hand the 2 cut


And pull it out gently with the exacto knife


I put everything in place on a cookie sheet lined with Renold's release foil


And apply my candy to the open parts


Out of the oven

Similarly, for counterstrike:
