Christmas Cookies Word Search, free printable PDF preview

SHORTBREAD is three ingredients: BUTTER, sugar, flour. The word short means high in fat, which is why it crumbles instead of bending, and why bakers argue about nothing else so fiercely. Around it this word find gathers the rest of a December kitchen: the PARCHMENT that saves the TRAY, the RACK where things cool, and the SPRINKLES that go on last.

Frequently asked questions

Why use PARCHMENT instead of greasing the TRAY?

Grease spreads under the dough and fries the base, so edges brown faster than the middle. Parchment lets the cookie sit on paper rather than hot metal.

Why do cookies need a cooling RACK?

Left on the hot tray they keep baking underneath and go soggy from their own steam. The rack lets air reach the bottom.
