A three-tier fir tree with a short trunk. The tiers give you three clear bands to decorate, one garland per step, and the rounded tier corners keep the tips from overbaking. Good for Christmas cookie trays, advent baking and holiday gift boxes. The cookie comes out about 76 by 95 mm.

Made with our free cookie cutter generator, not modelled by hand: we drew the silhouette, uploaded it to the tool and set the cutter size to 95 mm. The STL in the zip is exactly what the tool gives you: a 0.8 mm blade, 14 mm tall, with a 4 mm rim to press on, exported rim down so it prints without supports. The silhouette is in the zip too, as an SVG, so you can make it bigger, smaller or add a matching stamp.

Cut the trees nose to tail on the rolled dough, one pointing up and the next pointing down. You get almost twice as many from one sheet.

Shown as a 3D render of the printed cutter and two cookies in its shape, not a photo.

What you need

  • Rolled cookie dough that holds its shape: sugar cookie or gingerbread, with little or no baking powder
  • A rolling pin, and two 5 to 6 mm guides for an even thickness
  • Flour for dipping the cutter, and baking paper
  • About 8 g of PLA or PETG, ideally a food-contact filament

How to use it

  1. Print the cutter as exported: rim flat on the bed, blade pointing up, no supports.
  2. Wash it in warm soapy water before the first use.
  3. Roll the chilled dough 5 to 6 mm thick between two sheets of baking paper.
  4. Dip the blade in flour, press straight down with your palm on the rim, and lift.
  5. Chill the cut cookies for ten minutes, then bake.
  6. Wash the cutter by hand straight after use and let it dry. PLA softens in a dishwasher.

Questions about this design

How do I decorate the Christmas tree cookies quickly?

Flood the whole tree in green icing, then while it is still wet drop a line of sprinkles along the edge of each tier. The three tiers do the design work for you and it takes seconds per cookie.

Will the tree trunk break off when I lift the cookie?

Not at this size. The trunk is wide enough to stay attached in a rolled dough, as long as you lift the cookie with a spatula under the whole tree, not by the top.

Can I make the christmas tree cutter bigger or smaller?

Yes. Upload christmas-tree.svg from the zip to the free cookie cutter generator and move the Cutter size slider (this one is 95 mm). You can also switch on a matching stamp there, or change the blade height and rim.
