Moulded shaped sandwiches (Part 2)

Unlike the earlier pictorial, this technique of moulding sandwich only requires one cookie cutter of your choice, but one with a flat top/edge.

Credits to Susan for inspiring this post.


Tools required

Any cookie cutter and at least 2 slices of bread


Method:

1. Place cookie cutter flat side down on 2 slice of bread.


2. Press down gently to mark the shape onto the bread. Don’t forget your filling – choice can be jam/spreads, cold cuts, mashed eggs, tuna etc. Note don’t over stuff your filling otherwise it may break.

3. Once the bread centre is filled, place your cookie cutter back into place before firmly pressing down the cookie cutter (flat side down). This will seal the edges together.

4. With a sharp object – knife or scissors, cut out the shape leaving a small gap between the seal edges (otherwise the filling may slide out).

5. Ta-da…..revealing your moulded shaped sandwich.

TIP: You can also cut additional features onto your moulded bread, eg. I added some thorny spines onto my dinasour. Too sharp and scary? Ok no problem, off they come but after removing them I can't put them back on again. Hey what you expect, Transformers bread or what??? ;)

Er, then again, maybe I could put them back....but it won't be exactly the same as before and you'll have to be good and give me a kiss (er, this is me talking to my fickle son :))! Lol
