Refilling the Cookie Press

1Unplug the Cookie Press.

2Hold the Handle of the Motor Body with one hand. With the other hand turn the Tube counter-clockwise until the arrow from the Motor Body lines up with the arrow on the Tube, the unlock position.

3Fill the Tube with freshly prepared cookie dough up to the MAX Fill Line.

NOTE: To ensure proper operation, do not fill the Tube past the MAX Fill Line. DO NOT OVERFILL!

4Attach the Tube to the Motor Body. Align the arrow on the 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.

5Your 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.

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.
