Pressed Cookies
Betty Crocker's guide to making pressed cookies with a cooky press.
Ingredients
Instructions
Mix dough as directed—doughs for pressed cookies are high in shortening. Dough must be pliable. If very warm, chill a short time. (If too cold, it crumbles.) Using ¼ at a time, place dough in cooky press. Force dough through cooky press, following manufacturers' directions, on ungreased baking sheet. If baking sheet is too warm, fat in the dough will melt and cookies will pull away from sheet when press is lifted. Bake until set.
Perfect pressed cookies have: • well-defined pattern and shape • tender, yet crisp eating quality
