This cookie press recipe is best if you chill the dough before you place the dough in your press.
Have the kids help with the decorating! It is fun to see how many different cookie styles can result from one batch of these Cookie press cookies recipes.
The best cookie press I have ever used is the Kuhn Rikon stainless version. I like it best because it doesn't jam like some of the lesser models.
Before baking, top your creations with colored candies or sprinkles. Sometimes I sprinkle finely chopped nuts over the tops as a change from the candy sprinkles.
I find that adults as well as kids enjoy the unique shapes and colorful designs of this cookie recipe. This recipe brings out the kid that lives in all of us.
