- 12. If you do not own a cookie press , you can form your own designs, Here's a few suggestions: The ball may be formed into flat cookies with the bottom of a water glass which has been dipped in cold water and than in sugar. If the bottom of the glass has a sharply cut design , a pleasing effect is given to the cookie. If a fork is used to flatten the ball, crisscross or parallel lines give a decorative touch. Pecans or English walnuts halves used to flatten the balls leave an interesting design. If desired the nut halves may be baked on the cookies. Flattened ball cookies may be decorated as suggested for pressed cookies.
