A Cupcakery customer recently had a 'daddy shower' for her husband and his friends and she requested a number of masculine cookies including mustaches on a stick! I found the cookie cutter at Cheap Cookie Cutters (where they have thousands of fabulous cookie cutters!) and even though it was smaller than I thought it would be they turned out really well.
I made a batch of my sugar cookies, recipe here, and before they went in the oven I added a small lollipop stick. I gently pushed them into the back (not all the way through) and added a little extra dough over the back of the stick. Five minutes in the oven and the sticks stayed in! Because of the extra dough on the back I had to decorate what was the back of the cookie with brown, black, and gray royal icing. YUM!
Note: if the stick starts to slide out, take it out, dip the end in a little royal icing and gently slide it back in. Royal icing is an awesome 'glue' to fix mistakes and oopsies since it dries so hard.
