Can you make a drop cookie recipe into a cut out cookie recipe?
sure, but you'll have to increase the flour, and reduce the fat (butter) and baking soda - liquid and alkalinity (from the soda) encourage dough to spread, and you'll want a rolled cookie to retain its shape better. a typical drop cookie might have 1 egg per 2c flour, where a rolled cookie might have 3c flour for that one egg, so that's a good guideline for the flour. for baking soda,
How to Make Softer Cookie Dough For a Cookie Press?
A baking tool to make formed cookies is called a cookie press. The cookie press can either be manual or electric. It consists of a tube to place the cookie dough, a stencil at one end to shape the cookies to give them uniformity and a plunger to press the cookie dough through the stencil of the press. In order to have the cookie press working suitably, the cookie dough needs to be at the correct consistency. Here are some tips for creating cookie dough with the perfect consistency. 1. Allow the cookie dough to reach room temperature before using in the cookie press. Several cookie recipes that call for the use of a press will have you refrigerate the cookie dough before using it. If you refrigerate the cookie dough too long, you may end up with dough that is too hard to manipulate and work with the press properly. 2. If the dough is too sticky and soft after taking it out of the fridge, add one tablespoon of flour at a time until the cookie dough is firm and workable. 3. If the cookie dough is too stiff after it has come to room temperature, add a tablespoon of milk or butter until the cookie dough is softer. Remember to not add too much butter, as this may cause the cookies to spread when baking. 4. Load the room temperature cookie dough into the press, and place in the fridge for ten minutes, which will allow the cookie dough to set up. 5. Never grease the baking sheets when you use a cookie press. The cookie dough will need to stick to the sheet. Remember to use recipes that are designed for the press. Do not add chips or sprinkles to the dough, as it can cause the press to jam.

Can you use cookie dough to mold it into miniature people?
You can, but you may not get the result you want. Cookie dough has to be baked to make it edible, the heat required to bake it causes the ingredients to soften, blend, melt and spread. Your miniature people will end up rather flat. You can use cookie cutters to cut rolled cookie dough into shapes. Depending on the dough they spread a bit, but tend to retain their general shape, details can be added with icing to make them more individual. If you need small figure that are three dimensional, you could use either gum paste, fondant, or marzipan to sculpt you figures, none of these products need to be baked and tend to keep their shape better.
