Looking for the Best Cookie Press Disks for Beginners?

In summary, a cookie press disk is a small, circular disk used in a cookie press to create various shapes and patterns in cookie dough. To use it, one must fill the cookie press with dough and insert the disk before pressing the handle to push the dough through. Most cookie press disks are dishwasher safe, but it's important to check the specific instructions for proper cleaning. It's best to use firm dough, like sugar or gingerbread, with a cookie press. To store cookie press disks, keep them in a cool, dry place or in a plastic bag or container.

I remember seeing someplace a list of disks that were the easiest for beginners to use - but now can't find it - does anyone have this info?
Thanks!
 
#4 is one of them. Any star type shape is easiest.
 
I don't have the list but I think the tree is pretty easy too.
 
cookie pressDoes anyone have any tips on how to get the best results using the cookie press? I make the classic spritz cookie dough and have trouble getting the dough to come out looking pretty or either it sticks to the press and won't release at all, so I get pretty frustrated with it and so have a hard time bringing myself to even talk about it a a show. As it is one of the guest specials I am taking it to my show tonight so it will at least be there for the guests to see it. :confused:
