These elegant and symbolic cookies are made with a lily of the valley cookie stamp. We have always loved the look of stamped cookies but had both been disappointed when the carefully stamped image came out of the oven a puffy, unrecognizable blob. Kathleen had given up on stamped cookies until she came upon a beautiful lily of the valley cookie stamp at a Scottish Highland festival. She was lamenting to her mother about the truculent dough when the Scotsman in charge of the booth explained step by step exactly how to make perfect stamped cookies. She bought the stamp, followed his instructions carefully, and lo and behold, the cookies baked up with a crisp, beautiful image. If you have any cookie stamps that are appropriate for a wedding, do use them for this recipe. You can also use the bottom of an old juice glass that has a sunburst pattern.
