I know that I'm not the first one who made a Lisa cookie, but I resolved to make my own Lisa cookie when baking Christmas cookies, and today, I spent some hours in the kitchen, making "regular" cookies, and finally, our all-time favorite Lisa cookie.  Lisa



I started with a print of Lisa's head, taken from one of my grabpics that I created for KMS, and a patch of cookie dough.



After cutting out the paper, I "traced" the outlines with a kitchen knife.



Now I carefully removed the overlapping pieces...



... but that was only the easy part. It was virtually impossible to get the shaped dough on the baking tray, so I had to start over, rolling the dough right on the tray.



Let's start over...



... and done! I was getting a bit exhausted after spending three hours in the kitchen already and rushed it a bit in the end, but it worked. Smile



The very last reminder of the dough got equipped with some almonds (I didn't want to "tag" the Lisa cookie this way, though), and the tray was put into the oven.



Ten minutes later, the cookie was ready, and it got a nice golden crust, and smelled like heaven. Smile



Another careful procedure to get it off the tray was successful.



Et voilà, a genuine Lisa cookie!  Lisa

Well, I don't really have something for icing it (and just for one Lisa cookie, it's probably too much effort after all Wink ) - but I put a mixture of egg yolk and cream on it, which isn't that bad. If I had at least a bit of talent, I might have tried to draw her face on it, but I already know that it would be ruinend right after the first stroke.  Sad

Sounds like it would have turned out yellow then -- and the important thing is the taste! Could you please send large batches of these cookies to us, so we can review them properly?  Gigi

The pic is a bit misleading, it does have a golden, yellowish tone, apart from the brown edges. And sending cookies? Uh, maybe after Christmas...  Big Grin

I call the first Marge cookie!
* D.B. wonders if there is a baking tray big enough.

Anyway, neat idea, and you should definately have a go at icing in eyes/etc. If it goes wrong just ice all over and pretend you were always going to do that  Smile

Danm! Why didn't Mat and I think of that technique? Gigi
Looks good though Big Grin
I'd lend you icing though if I could!
I'm sure yours would come out looking even more professional Tongue (and tasty!)
Good job Smile

Lisa cookies are like a tradition here, heheh. A staple in the diet of every LTS member Tongue Congratulations on making one, Andreas, though if I recall correctly, Rachel and Mat made some over the summer...

Nice work still though, it looks great. Now if only you had some icing Lisa

Credits for the first Lisa cookie ever goes to Rachel and Mat - and they even drew her a face! I guess I will put the cookie under the Christmas tree tomorrow and eat it as the final present. Smile

Ohhh wonderful! ....
I have a small question ...
Do you have the ingredients for the lisa cookie? Embarrassed
I would like to make my own attempt ...
In my side of the world the ingredients for the cookies are slightly different (not a lot) but I am very curious ... Big Grin

PD: You could use a bit of candy to improve the duration of the cookie ... (Especially in yellow tones) ... Lisa
