Why is it so hard to get my Spritz cookie dough to pass through the cookie press?
It is very important that the cookie dough is at room temperature (69 – 70 degrees). Do not chill the cookie dough. Chilling causes the dough to be too firm to pass through the press. If dough is not chilled and still too stiff, you might have too much flour in the dough. Try working in a small amount of softened butter or a small amount of beaten egg to soften the dough so that it will go through the cookie press.
