Thanks for all the information, I truly appreciate it. I've been down sizing because I'm an empty nester and I found this cooky cutter😮. Mom has Alzheimer’s and I don't remember using this...KZfaq to the rescue😂 Great video, thanks for sharing 😊 Edited: have you used the Mirro frosting vitage gadget?

I totally understand my mom lives with me too. I really wish you coukd have added a picture how the cookies turned out. Thanks for sharing😊

Chill the dough for a couple of hours..for it to stay firm and retain its shape of the template..coming out of the cookie press…

"And we are not opening that door" I think everybody understands what she means here... 🤣😂😭😂🤣😂😭😂🤣😂😭😂🤣😂😭😂🤣

To remove the remaining water, you hold down the toilet handle, and it drains the water in the tank.

I wear the copper fit. I've been looking at some on KZfaq that I've seen that were designed by a nurse, but they're like 34 or $35. If you try anything let me know how they do.

Epic fell

Which socks are you using now?

Thanks so much for this no body else has posted this hard to find instructions

for anyone finding this now....The plate needs to go with the # side up (each designed plate is numbered) and you have to fit it into the notches and turn slightly to lock into place. Otherwise when you back up the plunger (like they tell you to, to release the dough) the plate will wobble around & let dough leak thru the sides of the plate. Now I have figured all of that out. What I can't figure out is how to get the dang dough to release from the press. Maybe the dough should be cold? Maybe the pan should be cold? Any help would be appreciated.

How is the tape holding up?

My sister just sent me the one that my grandmother and mother both used when I was a kid. I'm excited to give this a shot, it's been decades since i've even seen one of these!

Thank you very much! I just watched this video after watching your older video. I love Mirro aluminum products!

Thank you very much for showing how to use this!!!

Pleas Wil you making a video with washing this plastic tablecloth in the sink with water dish soap and scrubbrush for me pleas pleas ❤❤❤❤😂

Also I have heard that coconut oil is beneficial for the memory. Put it on toast with jam or honey. Google it. It's worth a try perhaps? Medication for you isn't necessarily going to make the stress go away. Prayer is probably more effective in my opinion. Obviously I am not a dr, and you know best what is good for you. Use your channel to get support and look for other channels that are having the same struggles.

Bless your heart for being there for your Mom. I know it's hard work. Wishing you the very best in your journey 💞

Thank you so much for the video. I just purchased a Mirro cookie press & wasn't sure how to put the plates in. Now I can make my cheese straws. 😊 Merry Christmas. 🌲

If only today's cookie presses worked that well!!

I just found this video today, 2 yrs later. I have my mom's and grandmother's set, same as yours. The smaller, thinner tube you showed they used for cake decorating. The larger cookie press I never saw them use. I was going to donate it, but now that you showed me how to use it and gave the recipe, I will keep it! Thank you so much!

We finally unboxed an old press my mother gave us awhile back, and this made us excited to use it. Thanks for the great video!

Thank you for the video Kathey, I just inherited this press from my grandma who passed a couple weeks ago. I always enjoyed the cookies as a kid, but at my grandma was far enough away that I only got to see the cookie making process once or twice as a young boy. Sitting down today to relive those memories and needed a grandma like fill in to show me how to use the press I just inherited. While you might not be my grandma, thank you for taking the time to make this video. It means a lot to be able to carry on a family tradition, and today you've helped me do that. Thank you and Merry Christmas. ❤

So sweet seeing your mom come through. My mom passed 12 years ago and I'd give anything to see her sitting there watching me cook. No matter how old we get we still love and miss our Moms.

Loved this.

This video helped me so much! Just got one of these that used to belong to my great, great aunt 😊

Just want to let you know that if you look closely where you drop the design disk you will notice it's got three spots Walker you turn the disk slightly it locks it in 😊

I have used my Mom's 1950's Mirro press for years with always good results. My daughter bought me a new version with a handle & grip squeeze dispenser. I have not had any luck with this new gadget & hate. I want my old Mirro back.

I just shared this with my mom and aunt. They are going through this and it is very hard. Thank you for posting. Seeing that your mom passed in January, hoping you're healing.

I dont know if your mom is still in your care at this point. I've taken care of a lady with dementia for eleven years . Those earlier years of it were so hard. She's a stage 7d right now at 95 years old. The last few years are physically harder but honestly at this point they are the most precious time with her now that she's reached the last stage. Its been quite a journey. The hardest part was at the stage you describe in this video. Teepa Snow and Careblazer youtube videos have helped tremendously. If you are lifting to transfer to a bed or toilet be sure to watch videos to see how to do it correctly so you don't hurt yourself.

Just wanted to say thanks, and I loved your mom coming in. My mom lived with me and I lost her a while back and this video brought back such lovely memories. Wish she had talked. Thanks again

You make it look so easy.

Is the dough cold or room temp?

So cool! Thank you for sharing ❤

Thank you!

Thank you for the instructional video! I just found one of these at the local thrift shop and couldn’t figure out how to get the discs in. Can’t wait to make spritz cookies as a kid I loved chocolate spritz. Thanks again🌸

Merci beaucoup, j'en ai un aussi de cette marque je ne savais pas comment l'utiliser

Thank you, Miss Kathey for showing us how to use this. My dad just brought over that he found in his house. I got the handleless model, but it didn’t have any directions. Thank you , again☺️

"I cannot get all the water out from the inside." 🤭 One could flush the toilet? 🤗 Hehehe. You are my gal! Once I find where the toilet is leaking, that derned thing is getting Flex-taped!! (You should have seen under my kitchen sink! I used 2 rolls under there!) 😂

Thank you! I always wondered how these worked!

Where is the cookie dough recepit???😳

I love your easy, friendly way! Thanks!

Thank you for this. Open the other end to put the discs in.

Thank you for sharing!!

Very kind of you to make this helpful video.

Unscrew the bottom where the die is, then you can easily swap them out and clean the end. The dies lock into place.

Thank you, I have my grandmother's Mirror press and didn't know where to put the plates! This was very helpful!!!

Great…..now I want to hear your mom talk 😜

Nice good

You unscrew battom and twist plate in and screw back on.

I just pulled out mine that I got from my mom. It’s probably from the 1950s from the look of the old box and recipe booklet. Aww, missing my mom rn, May she RIP. I’m going to try it out today. The most exciting part is that it was made in the USA! Thanks for doing this video. Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
