Bottle Cap Cookies (Tutorial)
While perusing the internet looking for Fathers Day ideas.....
I saw soda "POP" being used to wish Dad a fun Fathers Day.
So here's some soda POP bottle cap cookies to commemorate the holiday. :)
I happen to have a bottle cap cutter that is no longer available.
But you could use a fluted round or just a circle cutter for these caps.
Outline and flood a circle in the middle of the cookie as shown below.
To make a more precise circle, use a food color marker (I use
yellow) and
trace around a smaller circle cutter right onto the cookie.
Follow the marker line to prevent a wobbly, misshapen-ed circle. ;)
Allow the inner circle to dry for about 15 min.
Then outline the outer edge with the tiny points of a bottle cap.
(see red cap below)
Flood over the entire cookie including the previous circle in the middle.
(see orange cap below)
This will give the bottle cap a puffy look.
After the cap has dried for about 2 hours, use a circle cutter just smaller than the cap to
indent around the edge as shown below on the green bottle cap cookie.
Allow the cookies to dry for at least four hours (longer may be better)
before indenting the middle with
letters to spell POP.
Dry overnight.
Randomly paint on some
silver metallic paint (or
silver luster dust mixed with vodka)
around the cap to give it a hint of metal.
