I think that the one and only time i did this we used a cookie dough
that was harder and more buttery than your average roll cookie dough,
probably with the intention that it would not rise in the oven and
distort the impression from the mold.

Or it could have been an anachronistic recipe that came with the
mold, I don't remember precisely. I remember very well that the necks of
nearly all the swan cookies broke.
