Pressed cookies obviously require some kind of cookie press. Fortunately, we have a whole museum of them! When the kids were little we bought an electric press and used it until it broke. Guido's Mom had made lots of pressed cookies when he was growing up (using the old metal press you had to crank by hand) and so making this type of cookie brought back many memories. Over the years, he bought several models of the crank-type that he found at the White Elephant booth at Punahou Carnival. He then found a used electric one at Goodwill so I was very prepared when this day arrived!!! I took pictures of all the different presses for you to see. Each press has its own set of discs to push the dough through so there are lots of shapes available to make!
