Have you ever made square or rectangle cookies and realized they spread a little in the oven and they lost their straight edge. Well I have but I’m here to share a super easy and helpful tip when this happens to you!

You can use a zester (a kitchen gadget most often used for zesting lemons, limes and oranges) to get those perfect straight edges on your cookies! Just make sure you do this over a papertowel or sink b/c you will have cookie crumbs. Just take your zester in one hand and your uneven edged cookie in the other and start to shave off until you get a straight edge on your cookie.

You can also use this technique is your over spray your airbrush on the sides of your cookie. Works perfect and so easy.
