I'm cooking this todayRecipe's preparation
Pre heat oven to 180 celcius prepare cookie sheet (do not use baking paper, the pressed cookies need to go directly onto the tray)
Add softened butter and icing sugar to the bowl, cream 1 minute speed 3. Scrape down the sides at intervals if needed until pale in colour and fluffy.
Add whole egg to the bowl and mix 30 seconds speed 4 until combined with butter mixture.
Add almond meal and plain flour and mix 20 seconds speed 4. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and mix 10 seconds speed 4 until combined.
Scoop cookie dough into the cookie dough press and continue following instructions for your particular press. Add any extra decorations to be baked to the cookies and place in the oven.
Bake in the oven for 10-12 minutes until lightly golden.
Remove from the baking tray to a wire rack and cool before decorating.
Prepare Cookie Dough
Tip
Mini choc chips, mini m&m's and little jelly jubes make great decorations for a pre baked cookie. You can ice these cookies and add all sorts of decorations after baking. Dust plain cookies with icing sugar for a simple treat.This recipe should be used straight away and does not work well in a cookie dough press if the dough has been refrigerated. If dough becomes too soft and you have difficulty pressing place in the fridge for no longer than 5 minutes or it will not work well in the cookie dough press.

Recipe is created forTM 5
If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

Perfect recipe! I ended up making two batches of cookies as my 3 year old ate nearly half of the first batch. The dough worked well in my cookie press.
I have made these cookie press biscuits twice now - the first using almond meal as in the recipe but the second time using half almond meal and half hazelnut meal. The second time was a lot more flavoursome so I will stick to that. Very easy recipe to make with a cookie press!
I think I overprocessed the almonds to make the meal, but a very cool recipe, thanks! It went easily through my retro SAWA cookie press, making very cute spritz biscuits, that aren't too sweet.
Fabulous recipe! I used cashews to make the meal instead of almonds and they are fantastic.
Thanks for your extra tips too
