Instructions for Making Cookies

The proper consistency of cookie dough is very important. If the dough is too stiff, it won't release from the Cookie Press. If the dough is too soft or sticky, chill in the refrigerator for 15 minutes. For best results, use the recipes in this booklet until you get a feel for the proper consistency of the dough. We do not recommend

using store-bought refrigerated cookie doughs.

1. Plug the fully assembled and filled Cookie Press into a standard 120V AC outlet.

2. Stand the Cookie Press upright and press against the surface of the cookie sheet. Refer to Figure 7. The Cookie Press has been specially designed for thumb operation. Thumb operation provides better balance for placing the cookie shapes on the cookie sheets. (See Figure 8.)

3. When the Tube is filled with cookie dough and the ON/OFF Button is pressed, the Press Disc pushes downward, forcing the dough through the Disc or Tip to form an attractive cookie or decoration.

4. Holding the Cookie Press in position against the cookie sheet, press and hold the ON/OFF Button until the air pockets have been removed and the dough starts to emerge from the openings in the Cookie Disc.

5. Press a cookie for 2 seconds and note the result.

NOTE: The time to press each cookie will be based on the

desired thickness and shape of your cookie and the dough you are using.

6. Release the ON/OFF Button and quickly step to the next position on the cookie sheet. Refer to Figure 8.

NOTE: It may be necessary to experiment with varying times and

pressures until the desired cookie thickness is achieved.
