How Do You Operate a Cookie Press?

A cookie press is a cooking utensil that creates cookies of a desired shape, all of the same size. It consists of the cookie shaper, a tube filled with cookie dough and a trigger to create the cookies. Cookie presses can help you make Spritz cookies and other varieties that need to be the same size and shape consistently. Be sure to use the proper type of dough in your cookie press, such as Spritz cookie dough. Does this Spark an idea?

Instructions

    • 1

      Pull the trigger on the cookie press so the disk is backed up as far as it can go in the tube, making room for the cookie dough, if needed.

    • 2

      Unscrew the top or bottom of the cookie press to add the dough. Each cookie press varies slightly as to how to add the dough. Fill the tube with dough and press it down until it is firmly in the tube.

    • 3

      Place the desired cookie shape on the end of the cookie press and place the ring over it to hold it in place. Tighten the ring gently.

    • 4

      Hold the cookie press, cookie side down, on the cookie sheet and pull up on the trigger while gently lifting the press away from the cookie sheet. One squeeze of the trigger will make one cookie.

    • 5

      Move the cookie press over 1 inch and repeat Step 4 until all of the cookie dough is used.
