It is quite easy to use a cookies press once you have prepared the dough. Open the cookie press and put the dough inside using fingers or a spoon. Choose the disc as per the design of the cookies you want. Now, follow the instructions on the manual or packaging of the press machine to know how to proceed as per your choice of the manual or electric machine. Generally, in a manual machine, all you have to do is turn a handle to produce a cookie, and in an electric one, you have to press a trigger button.
