So, have I gotten you to reconsider rolling out dough? Please say yes! You know Chicken-in-a-Biskit crackers are worth it. This will help keep the shapes from stretching or tearing. Rather than trying to peel more delicate shapes of dough off the parchment, try removing the dough surrounding the cut out shapes first, and then peeling the paper away from each cut out shape instead of the other way around. If you are having trouble getting clean lines when cutting out dough or the dough is just too difficult to handle, roll it out, and then chill the dough in the refrigerator or freezer. For stiffer doughs, just pass over the dough more times with the rolling pin rather than muscling through it by pressing too hard.įifth, chill it.

Rolling out the dough into an even layer is the most challenging and scariest part of the whole process. Others, between two sheets of unbleached parchment paper.
