Here is the recipe:1 c. soft butter (I only use Land O'Lakes butter)
2/3 c. sugar
3 egg yolks
1 t. vanilla
Mix above ingredients thoroughly.
Add 2 and 1/2 cups flour, work in with your hands. (I have a Kitchen Aid mixer so I use that instead.)
Use cookie press to shape cookies, bake at 400 degrees for 7-10 minutes.
This is the best part, eat all of the misshapen rejects and save the "pretty" ones for company.
Oh and then when you run out of rejects to eat that is an excuse to make another batch in another color, guaranteed to produce more reject shapes!

What sort of flour? Self raising or plain?
Thanks,

Your caution is well advised. What a strange name for a cookie press. Lol. That recipe sounds delicious but it's not for the faint of heart or high of cholesterol! I'll probably be trying it soon.
You're a dear ! Thanks for the recipe and a better look at the press.. this might be a baking weekend !
Wow! Am sure the recipe works well without the press, but it would be nice for Xmas.
My mother has a really old cookie press--completely made of metal. I loved using it as a child.
Happy to see a cookie press - my expensive one from Pampered chef is awful......will look for a Super Shooter!!!
Thanks We love these cookies and have been making them for years also.
Just made this recipe for the first time, and also the first time to use a cookie press. about 85% of the cookies were okay. the others were duds. Have any tips for consistency of the same cookie? I am a perfectionist, and feel like I failed, ha ha ha.
