How to Make a GingerSnape.

[pyjamapants]

First off, I hope ya'll enjoyed your Gingersnapes. It's been a blast making them, and I'm super anxious to hear how you liked them. :) I've been passing them out randomly at the con (I'm really hoping to happen upon a flock of Snarry shippers tomorrow). And have some classic photes of Droxy!Snape NOT RESPONDING WELL to Gingersnapes. :) I can't get the photos off the memory card yet, but they''ll certainly be up. *giggle*

So, you've read the story by voxangelus  now. The inspiration for it was described here. (and if you've not read the story yet, go here or here)

Here's, quickly (before i pass out), how the cookies happened.

First, I asked anonymous_plume  to do an outline of pregger Snape for me. She is brilliant and delivered this:

She also gave me a cauldron (which you guys have, but con-goers don't. No playing Snape and cauldron for these folks!). Then I just printed out the graphics and used window weatherstripping (the metal kind with the little rubbery insert). I bent the weather stripping into the shape of the outine. The gave me some nice cookie cutters with sharp edges. The downside is they don't form a fully connected figure which can be a little futzy.



From there, it was a matter of sampling recipes. I setted on this one for Gingersnaps. Then it was a matter of rolling out dough and cutting out the shapes. And eating! Lots of Snapey eating!


The accidentally made Pregnant-Outie (and apparently unrepeatable) Snape went to sc010f .



Stacked up Snapes make JengaSnapes



And last, my favorite Snape out of all of them.



Gingersnapes shall also be making an appearance at zibit_con_09 .

LOL! This was awesome, PJ. Thank you so much for the gingersnapes, *snicker*. Hubby let me open the package when I got home. needless to say, he keeps looking atme like I have grown another head. I'm not even gonna bother telling him what the other cookie is, but he did eat a cauldron, LOL.

I am missing everyone. And I know you are having fun. I am looking forward to the picspam. Oh, and Hogwarts_91's comment about talking to/licking the snapes is hilarious. =o)
ROFL!

oh, yes, before I forget, the cookies are delish. Now I need to brew a pot of coconut rum cake flavored coffee. That sounds like the perfect coupling. Mmmmm.

You are very, very welcome, Stef. I was on pins and needles Saturday morning waiting for people to get them. :)
