Helpful Hints
• Avoid greased or nonstick cookie sheets, as they will not hold the
shape of the cookie as well.
• When a recipe calls for butter and margarine, both must be used.
Do not substitute one with the other.
• Dough should be pliable enough to easily emerge from the Disc and
stick on the cookie sheet.
• If dough is too soft or sticky, refrigerate for 15 minutes, or beat
in a small amount of flour. If the dough is too stiff, mix in the yolk
of one egg.
• Once dough has been loaded, use it immediately.
• Cookie dough that has been refrigerated overnight will be too stiff
and will not work properly.
• Some doughs and Discs work better when you move faster, and
some when you move slower. After some practice with rhythm and
timing, the shapes will improve.
• Use Discs with cookie dough for the preparation of cookies.
• Use Pastry Tips with soft dough for decorating canapes, candies,
cookies, desserts, pastry fillings, etc.
• If dough is not moist enough to hold the decorations, lightly brush a
little water, milk, honey or a little egg white where decorations are to
be placed.
• The amount of cookies per batch will vary with each recipe, the
Cookie Disc used, and the thickness of the cookies.
• To avoid your cookie press from jamming never place cold dough in
the cookie press tube. If necessary, place your cookie dough in the
microwave on high for 5 seconds prior to filling the tube with dough.

Fill Line.

Fill Line. DO NOT OVERFILL!

Tube with the arrow on the Handle. Grasp the Tube firmly and
turn clockwise until the top arrow on the Tube lines up in the
LOCK position.
5 Your Cookie Press is ready for use again.
NOTE: Sometimes it may be necessary to disassemble and clean the
entire Cookie Press before refilling. For example, if you wish to use a
different type of dough or if dough has built up in the Cam Disc and is
preventing optimal performance. In these cases, clean and re-assemble
your Cookie Press. as directed in this manual. Always practice food
safety guidelines.
