- Dough - Then, add the flour mixture. The consistency of this dough is softer than that of other cookies, so it is easy to press from the cookie press.
- Fill Press: Divide the dough into 3 or 4 portions. If you prefer, you can color the dough with food coloring gels. Fill the dough into the cookie press with a Christmas disc. Every cookie press is different, so make sure to read the instructions well and set the press as per directions.
- Press cookies directly on the baking tray (no parchment paper). Hold the cookie press at a right angle (straight up) to the baking tray, press down, hold, and then lift up. If you have any points, press them down with a wet finger.
- Bake the cookies in a preheated oven for 6 to 8 minutes. These do bake quickly, so keep a close eye on them. You need to take them out when the edges start to color.
- Cool on the baking tray for just 10 minutes. Then, transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.
- Centers: Put some jam in a piping bag, cut a small hole at the end, and fill the cookie centers with jam. These cookies will stay in an airtight cookie jar for up to a week.½ cup Strawberry jam
