That round cellophane circle looked like the perfect spot to display a cookie. Sure enough! Perfect Fit, and boy do they look cute. You can buy packs of these envelopes for ridiculously cheap, and even in fun colors. Slip your favorite cookies right in there. One thing I would strongly suggest is cutting out a piece of waxed paper or parchment and sliding it in under the cookie so the butter doesn’t soak through the paper and look messy.
How cute are those? Don’t answer that, because they’re about to get even cuter. At the bottom of this post you’ll find a downloadable file for these adorable labels. You can use double-stick tape, or do what I did and print them on sticker paper (available at office supply stores, my pack was actually labeled “shipping paper“). Not only do these darling labels have cute designs on the front, they have room on them to write a to/from, or a little message, or to label the type of cookie that’s inside.
Just fold the wrapper right over the top. This project becomes even quicker and easier if you grab your cookies at a bakery (Costco cookies work great!) The Fred Meyer bakery actually baked mine, shhh… no one has to know. Except for the millions of people around the world reading this right now. But no one has to know about yours. This is such a fun and classy way to dress up a single cookie. It takes something simple and instantly turns it into something special and personal.
It’s the perfect thing to pack in a basket and take to work to share with co-workers, or drop off at school for your favorite teachers, or take to church to share with friends.
You could also use a round cookie cutter and cut out something like a brownie or a rice krispie treat.
Anyway you cut it, this is a brilliant and creative use for an inexpensive little paper envelope (if I don’t say so myself!) I couldn’t decide which image to give you for pinning, so you get both! Hover over an image to make the Pin button appear!
