Chef's Notes
Do not skip the egg wash! That little brush of beaten egg is the secret weapon that transforms a dull biscuit into a shiny, professional masterpiece.
Pro Tip
If your dough feels too sticky to roll after mixing, pop it into the refrigerator for 20 minutes to firm up the shortening. It will save you a world of messy grief.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
If you forget to leave two full inches of space between the pigs, they will expand in the oven and fuse into a single, terrifying mega-pig mutant stretching across your baking sheet.

Royal Court Comedy
Oh look, a pig-shaped cookie to remind you of exactly what you will look like after eating three of them.

Pastry & Confectionery Stabilization
Storage Science
Cakes and soft desserts should be wrapped tightly to prevent moisture loss and stored at room temperature (if no perishable fillings) or refrigerated. Consume within 3 days.
Reheating Science
Serve at room temperature for optimal flavor perception, as cold mutes sweetness. If it's a baked pastry, flash-heat in a 350Β°F (175Β°C) oven for 3-5 minutes to restore the butter matrix and crispness.
