2- Add 1M tip onto coupler and screw the tip onto the coupler using the top portion of the coupler.

3- Add Cookie dough into bag and pipe in a circular motion onto your baking dish.

4- Pour sprinkles on top of each cookie

***If you are using a cookie presser then you would follow the instructions given on the manual of the cookie presser.***

Step 8- Place cookies into a preheated 350-degree oven and let bake for 15 minutes.

Step 9- After 15 minutes remove cookies from oven. Let cool for about 1 hour before serving.
