Thank you for your answer. I live in Greece. Your cream cheese cookies are delicious. But I still make some adjustments to the flour till I found the right amount of gr.Your recipe for kourabiedes is not the best one. Kourabiedes must not be like small stones. not hard. When I will have time I will send you my family’s recipe that doesnt contain egg and some tips.

Hi Katerina. The flour I’m using is standard U.S. unbleached all-purpose flour which is 10-12% protein and weighs 120 g per cup, so depending on where you live and what flour you have access to, you may have to make some adjustments. As soon as the dough is ready, I put it in the press immediately because it comes out easier. I hope you enjoy the cookies!

I am trying to make your recipe but the gr of flour are not sufficient. What type of flour do you use. in the package usually mentions the percentage of proteins that the amount has. I made the cookies but I added 100 gr more. there were delicious but i am not sure how they should be like. Do you put the dough in the refrigerator before you bake them? Or you put the dough in the press machine immediate?

Make sure that you are NOT using a non-stick cookie sheet and/or greasing the sheet. In order for the press to work properly, the cookie needs to be able to stick to the surface as you pull the gun away, and using non-stick cookware or greasing normal cookware keeps it from doing so.

Hi Cris. If the dough is too soft, it might stick to the pattern. Try removing the dough from the press and working a tablespoon of flour into it.

if you copy and past the text into notebook then you have more control, or you can highlight and when you print click the box that says print selected only…..hope this helps

Hi Patricia. These cookies will keep fresh in a tin for about 4 days after baking, though we’ve eaten them past that. They do freeze well if properly wrapped.
