There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I chatted with Amazon, told them the situation and they credited me for the cost of the press and I am ordering another...no need to send it back. This is why I shop here..so hassle free.
Manufacturing defect aside, this was the most effortless press I have ever used! I found after I primed the unit and scraped off the dough as instructed I still had to do a double press to get the first cookie out, which was now double the size of all the rest. No problem, I just scooped it up and put it back in the bowl for the next batch. Nothing was wasted. The rest of the cookies came out perfect with one press and if I had enough cookie sheets I could have knocked out the entire dough batch in about ten minutes...EVEN with reload time! I used a teaspoon to press out any air pockets...made sure my pan was ungreased and cold (made sure the pan cooled before I loaded on another batch) rotated the pan in the oven halfway through as suggested in the recipe and every cookie came out picture perfect in warp speed. I loved how easy it was to change disks between batches so I was able to check out several of the designs and they all came out adorable. The cookies are petite but I like that...some others complained they were too small...I find the small size adds to their charm. I made the lemon poppy seed variation of the butter cookie included with the unit...I'm a lemon freak so next time I will double the amount of lemon extract, but it still made for a tender, flavorful cookie with a hint of lemon. I purchased the autumn disk set but have not used it yet. Wanted the spring set but they are unavailable at the moment.
My only regret is that I will have to wait for the new press to arrive to make more cookies...
Update: The new press works great and I since I couldn't find a good lemon cookie recipe for this press I created one that I am thrilled with. If you're looking for a mild lemon flavor...move on, this is NOT the cookie for you.
Lemon Poppy Sunflower Cookies
2 Sticks cold butter cut into teaspoon slices
3 ounces softened cream cheese
1 cup sugar
1 egg yolk
I teaspoon lemon oil (I got this at King Arthur Flour) if you use extract, double it and add more as desired
I heaping teaspoon of european lemon zest (King Arthur again) fresh zest of one lemon would be fine
1 teaspoon lemon powder (King Arthur) have no idea what to sub here maybe double the zest
2 1/2 Cups King Arthur All Purpose Flour (the only flour I use)
1/4 teaspoon of salt (if your using salted butter you can skip this)
Poppy seeds
Lemon sugar (again King Arthur, but I was disappointed how minimal the taste was...perfect lemon yellow color however so I used it...a nice lemon yellow sanding sugar would work just fine)
Makes 8 dozen cookies
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Cream butter and cream cheese and sugar (I used my Kitchenaid mixer and it took a lot longer than you would think) Look for the mixture to change color to a light yellow almost white with no lumps of butter showing, it should be light and fluffy...took me about 10 minutes on medium speed)
Add egg yolk, lemon oil, lemon zest, lemon powder mix until well combine and then taste to see if it's lemony enough for you and adjust as needed (I added more lemon powder as a first instinct).
Combine flour and salt and slowly add to butter mixture while mixing...here's where a lot of people go wrong, don't be afraid to mix this, you won't get a tough cookie but if it's not light enough it won't go through the press.
Load the dough with a teaspoon into the press fitted with the sunflower disc, pushing the dough down with the teaspoon to push out any air pockets, if any dough starts coming out of the press just pop it back in the bowl for the next batch. Press cookies out on a COLD UNGREASED COOKIE SHEET. Don't try to use parchment, foil or silpat, it just won't work. I've never had a cookie stick or break. You may have to press twice to get the first cookie out, this will be bigger than the rest, I just scoop it up, put it back in the bowl and press another in it's place. Dust with lemon sugar or yellow sanding sugar and then sprinkle poppy seeds in the center. I use a 1/8th teaspoon for this and tried several different ways, one depressing the center with the measuring spoon and pouring some poppy seeds in...but in the end I just sprinkled some around the center (there is a peak in the very center) I liked the way this looked the best.
Baking: my oven is true to temp and at first I baked for 12 minutes, rotating the pan after 6 minutes. The end result was a cookie that was golden just around the edges and somewhat pale. The texture was delicate with a nice crumb. Next I tried at 14 minutes rotating after 7 minutes. Now the end result had the golden color encroaching up the petals a bit and I just loved this look! Much more reminiscent of a real sunflower. The texture was now crispy and I preferred it by far.
Now these cookies are amazing just as is, but I'm planning on melting some lemon wafers (King Arthur) and dipping the bottoms in it for a cookie that will hit it out of the park. Also thought about sandwiching two cookies between some of the melted lemon wafers but that may be just too much cookie. I'll update with the results.
Hope you enjoy this recipe!
UPDATE: dipping the bottoms in the melted lemon wafers was just too much of a hassle so I put a dollop of about 1/8th-1/4 teaspoon of the melted lemon wafers on the flat side of a cookie and sandwiched it with another. The small size of the cookie was perfect for this and I just loved the result. I melted about a half cup of wafers in the microwave for 2-30 second burst on high and it was enough to sandwich about 40 cookies (80 cookies sandwiched). I left the rest as is. This cookie is a winner IMHO.
ANOTHER UPDATE: Duh! I lined a sheet with parchment paper, put a dollop of melted lemon wafer on the paper and centered a cookie on it and pressed gently. Worked like a charm. You could also put the dollop directly on the back of the cookie and then place on the sheet...I posted some photos. Here you don't want any brown color so I baked for 12 minutes rotating after 6.

Why doesn't OXO make a disc for churros?
I came across a similar kitchen gadget that was used to make churros. I normally just a frosting piping tip in a plastic bag for shaping my churro dough before frying. The catch is that I can't make them very thick. And I can't automatically make the hollow churros that can be filled with sweet stuff after you fry them up. Instead of just ordering a churro press, I figured I'd try this cookie press out. So no matter what, I've at least got a really good cookie press. I tried experimenting with different discs, but it just wasn't going to work for churros. It does work great in that you can hold the press sideways, and just click out long shapes (then cut with a knife when it reaches the right size). But the dough doesn't come out as a single, solid piece. At least, not in a shape vaguely resembling that of a churro. That you can't make churros with these isn't a bad thing. OXO doesn't advertise the product as something you could make churros with. I just had hoped that I would be able to do it. I can't, so I just buckled and ordered myself a churro press.
Overall, I'm happy with this cookie press. Works well, and you won't strain your hand much, like with some cheap cookie presses out there. So if you want a nice cookie press, add this one to your cart, and buy it today.
The OXO Good Grips 14-Piece Cookie Press Set has certainly made my baking adventures more enjoyable. The variety of discs and shapes included in the set offer a creative touch to my cookie presentations, and the sturdy construction of the press itself gives me confidence in its durability.
The ergonomic design of the handles with the Good Grips feature lives up to its name, making it comfortable to use even during extended baking sessions. The clear barrel allows me to monitor the cookie dough level easily, preventing any unexpected interruptions in the middle of my baking.
The set also comes with a handy storage case, which helps keep everything organized and easily accessible. While the press works well overall, I found that occasionally some dough gets stuck in the mechanism, requiring a bit of extra effort to clear. This is a minor inconvenience but worth mentioning.
All in all, the OXO Good Grips 14-Piece Cookie Press Set is a reliable and versatile tool for any avid baker. Despite the minor issue with dough sticking, the variety of shapes and the ease of use make it a valuable addition to my kitchen arsenal.

Sometimes, you are not cooking that many cookies and do not have enough dough to fill it or maybe the last batch of dough is not enough to fill it, then you can push the dough to the bottom, close the lid and press the lever until it reaches right near the dough.
If you follow this "no air" rule, you are guaranteed to get '1 cookie per 1 press of the lever' which means 60 cookies in 60 seconds! Since we are following this rule, we do not even need baking sheets now!
--
This is a perfect cookie set at a very reasonable price. Before getting the OXO, I would spend around 40-45 minutes fighting with the paper based pressing. Even bought a Martha Stewart cookie pressing set but that was of no use either. OXO was so simple to setup and very easy to use and I was able to get some very nice shaped cookies on first try & I am sure they will get even better with time. 30 cookies were done in 10 minutes!
On my first go, I had to press the lever "twice" every time to get a single cookie. Only the last cookie came out with "one" lever press. The issue could be that I was pressing them right onto the baking tray rather than on a baking sheet. In any case, I do not mind one or two press as the cookies were coming out in perfect shape. (Amazon Basics has reusable baking sheets at a good price)
The button that releases the plunger can be made better. Its very subtle. You have to push it at the right spot bofore the plunger should be pulled. I think that's where a lot of people are breaking it because if you pull the plunger a bit hard, it will just go through without the button but will damage the grooves and will eventually break.
Almost all parts can be taken out & are easily washable so a very well thought out design.
Overall, a very nice product that I am very happy with.
