Back when LOST was about to end, I made these sugar cookies that I dubbed “Sweet Cheeks“, which was one of many of Sawyer’s nicknames for people on the island. I bought a Message in a Cookie Kit from Williams-Sonoma and simply pressed names into the cookies before baking. It’s loads of fun and the kit is only $20.
To make these into Hunger Games cookies, I simply stamped in different names and phrases. This sugar cookie is to die for. I sat down at my computer this morning after taking the shots and inhaled five before I realized what I was doing. I suppose it’s better than throwing them out a train window though!
I call these “Sweethearts” instead, named after Haymitch’s pet name for Katniss.
Just think of the possibilities here. Guys, if your girlfriend is obsessed with The Hunger Games and you’re ready to pop the question, you totally need to propose to her via cookies. Just do three cookies, one with “You’ll Marry Me” and another with “Real or Not Real”. She’ll melt! Make sure you have a “Real” cookie for her to give to you. Be optimistic and don’t include a “Not Real” cookie. That would be a real bummer.
You obviously don’t need to make cute flower cookies. I just love this cutter, so I used it again. One trick I picked up while doing these was to save on time chilling the dough, just stick your flour in the freezer the day before you make these. That way when you mix the dough, the really cold flour will have your dough all chilled and ready to roll!
I stamped the cookies while they were on the sheet, then baked them for 11 minutes at 350 degrees.
Here they are cooling off! There’s no numbers in the kit, so I used a toothpick to make the ‘2’ in District 12. As you can see, I suck at toothpick numbering.
Just another angle here. And here’s a gallery of individual cookies!

wow,this is a really good idea.perfect you are looking for something sweet to serve at a hunger games party. .
sorry,i put it twice
I made these and love them! I made them for my mom and she wouldn’t stop eating them. 😛 We made 50 biscuits and she wouldn’t let me take a lot to school for my friends!:P They were so easy to make too. Great recipes, I will make them many times. 🙂
Haha, glad it’s not just me that has found herself totally inhaling them! 😀
I like it! 😀
It looks delicious.
Wonderful recipe. (: they look delicious! Do you know where I could buy the letters to stamp the cookies with? In a store, hopefully. Thanks!
I bought it at Williams-Sonoma!
When my book comes out (which it will eventually) I pray that you will post the recepies. They’ll be pretty interesting. I found it funny, because in The Hunger Games, each District had a type of bread. In my book IT’S THE SAME!!!!! AND THERE”S 12 Empires as there are 12 Districts!!! ?O______o so i’m changing that after my friends compared my heroine to Katniss! ( I hate comparisions to other characters not in the same series) anyway coolness! I hope one day they come on here though. There some other stuff.
Amazing idea!! Seriously, if my boyfriend proposed to me with the “real or not real” cookies i would probably faint from happiness!! LOL such a good idea! all of your hunger games recipes are so creative and look fantastic!! i’ll definitely be trying some out!
Haha, well, you should casually link this to him for sure then! 😀
i made these last night and they tasted amazing. i even added some chocolate chips! thanks for the amzing recipe. can you put up a recipe of like regular chocolate chip recipes? alright well thanx!

I did two batches of these this weekend b/c there were just so many words I wanted to make! The second batch I used wheat flour and it gave the cookies a great taste and a browner color. Trying to not eat all of them before the premiere!

I think this web site holds some rattling fantastic info for everyone :D. “Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.” by Ralph Waldo Emerson.
You really make it seem really easy with your presentation but I to find this topic to be actually something that I think I might by no means understand. It kind of feels too complex and extremely broad for me. I am taking a look forward for your subsequent publish, I’ll attempt to get the grasp of it!
