I was looking for a way to make dozens and dozens and dozens of cookies easily. There's a big Spring Fest at A's school in a couple of weeks and I wanted to make hundreds of cute cookies as a fund raiser. I have always wondered about making cookies with a cookie press but never knew how. On a whim today I bought a cheapie cookie press and came home and made sugar cookie dough. Basic recipe, tons of butter, almond and vanilla for flavor. Don't chill the dough. It took a little practice and coercion, but it was fun and relatively easy. Even the cookies that came out lumpy and imperfect will be great with a thin layer of royal icing and sprinkles. The bonus is that this is not my favorite cookie. I'm not a fan of plain sugar cookies, butter cookies or sprinkles. I can make thousands of these without being tempted to eat my weight in them. I'm going to make them, freeze them, ice them, package them in cute little bags with ribbon and sell them for the fundraiser... Anybody have any interesting recipes that would work in the press?
