Brown Bag Cookie Molds

 Are any of you that collect baking items--Are you  familiar with Brown Bag Cookie Molds?

   Back in the late '80s when we had our wholesale/retail Bird business we had a booth in Chicago at a trade show.

  When I was walking around I spotted this company and fell in love. This was a wholesale trade show-so all the prices reflected that. Of course I went crazy and bought lots of different molds at wholesale prices. These are pottery molds that make large cookies, they also had several small square or round shortbread molds.  Each mold was inserted into a brown bag-thus the name-Brown Bag Cookie Molds.  Over the years I bought several more pieces.

  I love all things kitchen items and I have a pretty huge collection of molds, cutters, stamps for cookies.

Anyways the instructions were not to bake in the molds. but form the cookie in the mold and then take out and bake. I didn't always have great success-especially with a gluten free dough.

 I dug out a Halloween shortbread mold and was looking for a recipe.  I found this awesome video and she bakes in the molds. Wow game changer haha. 

Here is the video sorry the video showed up but then when I posted said not available-strange.

   Here is the link 

   In the video you can see the molds. I looked online-Ebay and Etsy- and molds from this company are now considered vintage-so I guess I am more vintage than I thought-haha

  I looked online for a photo of my Halloween mold but couldn't find one-so here is a photo of mine




We finally got rain last night-lots of it with wind lightening and thunder. It  has been close to two months I think with no rain here.

Happy Friday and weekend
