TOLL HOUSE COOKIES
Tools and Materials
Fimo --- ochre and caramel
Ground coffee

Mix one part ochre to one part caramel Fimo, then knead in ground coffee till you have a good chocolate chip cookie "dough." Break off a piece and roll a ball (the size of the ball is up to you depending on the size of the cookie you want). Press ball slightly on flat surface then press again with a piece of craft Styroam to texture it.
Make as many cookies as you want and bake in oven at 200 to 250 degrees for 10 minutes. Arrange and glue on platter; when glue is dry, paint with Fimo matte lacquer.
