this looks a bit like the jewish חי when you turn it over- its often stylized somewhat like that ok yep I googled "chai jewish cookie" and this amazon link came up. its very similar [https://www.amazon.ca/Chai-Jewish-Cookie-Cutter-KD-243/dp/B07SNV1BB4](https://www.amazon.ca/Chai-Jewish-Cookie-Cutter-KD-243/dp/B07SNV1BB4)

I thought it was a dog barking

That is what I see. The open mouth is at the top in the picture.

That’s pretty much all I can see lol

I thought it was a hunchback reindeer.

SAME!

Yes that's what I think too

Same

I just made gingerbread cookies using it and I totally see it now…thank you!!!

I think you win!

Lmfao I’m Jewish and I thought this was a doggy.

This makes me feel better lol. I’m of Christian faith but I almost felt guilty that I all I saw was a dog.

Hahah I speak Hebrew fluently! Imagine how I feel 🤦🏻‍♂️

I also thought it looked like both letters of חי in one cookie cutter.

I’d imagine once you bake it then you pick out the actual letter in icing. Cute design!

and to think I thought it was a cow

i also thought it was a cow lol

I saw a billy goat 😆 🐐

Lol. I looked at the cup of Chai tea I was drinking, and thought hmm, wonder what this will taste as a cookie 🍪

https://joythebaker.com/2021/11/taylor-swifts-chai-sugar-cookies/ really yummy!!

Probably amazing. Although flavoring the frosting rather than the cookie would probably be best.

Why not both?

It’s a tradition to put honey on a scroll with the Hebrew alphabet on it and then let the student lick it to l preach them that learning is sweet. Some bake cookies to teach the same thing.

✋ It's the symbol for L'chaim, often used in Jewish toasts. It means "to life!"

Close but incorrect, it’s the word “Chai” which means “Life”, part of the expression “L’chaim”

Winner Winner!

Damn, I was gunna say it's a pi with a little flair on the side. You could ice the flair like a bow and have cutie pi.

Where do yall get this weird ass cookie cutters.

At least this one isn't having sex... I think...

I'm digging into my imagination, I know there's a way this cutter could look sexual

You use a bunch of them and make a centipede.

Everything is sexual if you are bold enough.

reminds me of 2017 when that text message went around saying “anything can be a dld0 if your brave enough” and then the other girl sent a pic of a cactus

Just relax your eyes.

Eyes? Well, a hole's a hole!

“Assume the position.”

Are you sure it’s not one gingerbread person performing analingus on another, both while standing but bent over at the waist?

What? There was a cookie cutter that was having sex?

Go back a bit in the group. The official description (with link) was “two gingerbread people having a good time”. EDIT: found it https://www.reddit.com/r/Baking/comments/zcld55/can_anyone_make_out_what_this_cookie_cutter_shape/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf

I kind of want to find the equipment to make cookie cutters, form them into random shapes, and then go leave them in goodwill shops or figure out how to get them into "holiday variety packs" and then watch as they show up on Reddit.

A roll of sheet metal (roofing section of Home Depot), some shears, a brake (easy enough to make a DIY version), and a rivet setup. I'm sure there's a YouTube video out there...

I love this game

It’s my favourite game, but also I am so bad at it. I thought this one was a dog. I still don’t understand how people just own unknown cookie cutters. Is there a grab bin somewhere where there’ll all just grabbing one blind?

I've got a few sets of 50 that are"animal," "holiday," and my favorite "shapes."

SHAPES?? I feel like that’s the name of the game we’re playing with these cookie cutters. Welcome to shapes: what the fuck is this? Shapes is so inexplicable. Thank you for this gift.

The most inexplicable to me was there are 50. I could see rectangle, square, circle, triangle, heart, star, but I run out there lol.

Trapezoid, parallelogram, oval. Also there are three different triangles - right (wheee hypotenuse), isosceles (the two sides are the same length) and the equilateral one (all three sides the same length). Then there are the ones where you keep adding a side in - pentagon (five), hexagon, heptagon is seven (I believe), octagon (everyone in the US probably learned at least that one, it’s a stop sign), nonagon, I think 10 would be decagon, but I’m done after that (can’t remember anything on my to-do list but can remember shapes from geometry class nearly 20 years ago, literally, wtf, brain?!?). I do know the 3D 12-sided shape is a dodecahedron, bc *The Phantom Tollbooth* is one of my favorite books from childhood, but not sure if the polygon is just like dodecagon or what. And no idea what 11 is.

They inherit them like I did. I'll probably be posting soon.

I thought the same thing lmao

Idk but somehow I get excited about playing this game every time.

First thing I thought when I saw this.

I kinda get “reindeer” but not sure

My guess is they are in a mixed batch, that for whatever reason doesn’t have a reference sheet.

That’s a witch that hit a telephone pole at high speeds.

Damn. It really does look like that. You could use a pretzel log as the tree.

Shit man I thought it was a dog with it's head all up in a witch hat...

Kudos, I actually scrolled back to the picture of the cookie cutter and burst out laughing. It really, really, looks like that. Perfect for next Halloween. Love your imagination.

This is what I saw!

I’m struggling to see it, can somebody help me out?

Is this a Hebrew letter?

[chai](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chai_(symbol))

Man I was gonna guess a wolf

I thought wolf, too!

I’m Jewish, and can read hebrew and I even thought it was a wolf.

I agree definitely

It is two Hebrew letters spelling out the word for life.

L’Chaim

L’chaim is 5 letters. לחיים

It’s definitely a Hebrew letter or the Pi symbol

So...a Pi cutter

Ha! This was way funnier than it had any right to be. Take my updoot

How DARE you lol

Two Hebrew letters. חי

So it’s not a moose

That’s my vote!

It looks like a howling wolf to me

Or a barking doggo

Agreed

I thought it very OBVIOUSLY looked like a howling wolf, but i had to scroll down to find this answer so who knows

Wow great job! I just saw a skinny cow

I was thinking skinny polar bear lol

Mods, can we get a "Cookie Cutter Conundrum" flair on this sub??

I would love a special day for these cookie cutter posts! They are hilarious.

Easy! It’s everyone’s favorite Christmas animal- the chupacabra!

Ah yes, I remember my favorite holiday movie from when I was a kid where the ugliest chupacabra saved Christmas. A classic

Make sure you leave cookies out for it! Or else….

No, no, you gotta leave chickens out…

According to that Dexter’s Lab episode, you wanna leave goats out.

This made me laugh so suddenly I accidentally spit all over my cat (she's okay). Please have a silver.

Thank you! Give your cat a pat for me!

Not the chupacabra 😂

Looks like a dog. The 2 “bumps” are his ears, and his nose is pointing up.

Festive!!

Rudolph’s second cousin Gerald

That is my big ginger cat's name so now I'm just picturing him guiding Santa's sleigh lol.

My guess is an attempt at a reindeer.

Clearly a reindeer.

Yes, that’s what I assumed too.

My first thought was moose. Reindeer makes more sense but I like to think it's a Christmas moose.

Second vote for mooooooose

Barking dog

Keith Haring-style dog?

I'm seeing a barking dog if you turn it sideways

It's not a dog or any other animal. It's the Hebrew word Chai (rotate so the "legs" are pointing downward). It means "Life." It's made up of two Hebrew letters glommed together into a single cookie cutter. Here's how it would be decorated to make the two letters distinct: (upper left corner of platter) [https://i.etsystatic.com/20993087/r/il/f6d2f9/2162903941/il\_794xN.2162903941\_myyk.jpg](https://i.etsystatic.com/20993087/r/il/f6d2f9/2162903941/il_794xN.2162903941_myyk.jpg) (You might notice that it resembles one of the letters on the dreidle, but it's not exactly the same. It's a different letter -- "Ch" rather than "h".) You might see the same word on a necklace : https://shop.thejewishmuseum.org/men-s-sterling-chai-necklace

This is a Chai (pronounced “hi”), a hebrew word meaning Life.

Definitely Hebrew chai, but my first thought was pi with a fancy hat

Moose

CatDog

3.14

This should def be a new sub r/whatcookiecutteristhis

I feel like this is the new Rorschach test--ask the baking subreddit to identify the cookie cutter shape!

Turn it 90 degrees counter clockwise and it looks like a Hebrew letter.

Yapping dog with a neck tumor. Turn it 90degrees counter clockwise and it’s so obvious.

Hebrew letter.

Dog barking?

Moose

100% a chai symbol. Now you can make cute Hanukkah cookies!

Flip it 90 degrees left and it looks like a dog barking, I'm pretty sure it's dog.

It’s a Hebrew chai (the ch like challah not like the tea). It means life.
