How to Wrap Cookies
- Wrap the cookies: Use parchment paper—white or brown. Place a small stack of cookies in the center, fold the sides over, then fold the ends, just as you would when wrapping a small present. For extra protection, place a small square of parchment or wax paper between cookie layers to prevent sticking.
- Tie it with twine: Secure the packet with twine, ribbon, or baker’s string. Tie a neat bow or knot to keep the packet closed. If tying is tricky, ask someone to hold the packet while you secure it.
