Abstract: A puzzle cookie cutter includes a cutting die holder and at least one cutting die removably securable in the holder. The die or dies provide for the cutting of cookie dough, batter, or the like into several separate, irregularly shaped and sized interfitting pieces, which pieces may be reassembled as a puzzle after baking to provide entertainment for the consumer of the cookie. The dies may be provided in virtually any regular or irregular geometric shape, animal or other caricature or representation, and/or any alphanumeric character, as desired. The die or dies may also provide for the spaced apart separation of the cut dough or batter, to allow for expansion or flow of the batter or dough during the baking process, in order that the baked pieces will have a close fit with one another without interference.
