Calling all Cookie Press experts! :chef: Here is a note I received from a prior host:
I bought the cookie press and the first time I used it was as soon as I got it from the delivery guy. It was fun to use, and stopped me from having to roll the cookie batter out. I had fun and it seemed to work, but when the cookies came out of the oven they weren’t the way I expected them to be. The were flat and not holding their shape. I thought maybe the cookie batter was the problem so I tried it again, still the same problem happened. My aunt suggested that I try using shortening rather then butter so recently I tried it that way and found that it still didn’t work. The utility might be able to work with another recipe and another try but I also realized that I would find it hard to use with batter that had chunks in it. This along with needing to use a specially made type of batter really doesn’t make this utility worth while.
I have never used this item and am not sure how I should respond. I am more than happy to help her with an exchange but didn't know if anyone had some good tips for how to use the Cookie Press that I could pass on?
