Hey girl, I heard you like cookies… Can you think of a better way to celebrate the holidays than with cookies and the world’s most sensitive meme? This Ryan Gosling cookie is made from an alluring vanilla sugar face and smoldering brown sugar hair. Adding a little hook turns it into the ultimate in sweet, sexy holiday decor.

Why does a Ryan Gosling cookie cutter exist? Why not, is the answer. Hey girl, Merry Christmas.

vanilla cookie ingredients:
– 3 cups all-purpose flour
– 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
– pinch of salt
– 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
– 1 cup sugar
– 1 egg
– 1 teaspoon vanilla

brown sugar cookie ingredients:
3 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 teaspoon baking powder
– pinch of salt
– 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
– 1-1/2 cups brown sugar
– 1 egg
– 1-½ teaspoons vanilla

For the vanilla cookie, in a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt.

In the bowl of an electric mixer cream the butter and sugar until combined.

Add the egg and vanilla, then slowly add in the dry ingredients until the dough comes together.

Separate the dough into two equal pieces, wrap in plastic wrap and chill until you are ready to use.

On to the brown sugar cookie dough, in a medium bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.

In the bowl of an electric mixer cream the butter and brown sugar until combined.

Add the egg and vanilla, then slowly add in the dry ingredients until the dough comes together.

Separate the dough into two equal pieces, wrap in plastic wrap and chill until you are ready to use.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and prep baking sheets with silpats or parchment.

Roll out the vanilla dough to about 3/8 of an inch. Detailed cookie cutters always need a little help so make sure you always dip it in flour before each use, then press down to get a clean impression.

Using a small knife, cut around the face. You are going to discard the hair and be left with a vanilla dough impression of the face, only. Place on a silpat lined baking sheet.

Moving on to the hair, roll out the brown sugar dough to 3/8″ and cut along the hairline once again. Discard the face and carefully line up the hair next to the vanilla face on the baking sheet.

Using the brown sugar dough make a small loop and press it to the top of Ryan Gosling’s head. This will bake together and attach itself, just make sure to leave a hole that goes all the way through.

Bake for 8-10 minutes depending on your oven. Let cool on a wire rack.

Once cooled, loop a ribbon through the hole and hang on the tree.
