The 10 Best Cookie Press for Making Cheese Straws

Spray the inside of the cookie press with cooking spray, place the dough in it and crimp to form a log. Then cut off desired lengths (about an inch) and place on baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray about an inch apart. Sprinkle rolling sugar over top of each roll before baking them in oven until they are golden brown.

If you bake a lot then it’s worth it as they’re easy to use and the dough doesn’t stick to your fingers which is worth dealing with the cost.
If you don’t bake much, then I wouldn’t recommend something this specific. You might want to invest in a multi-use tool for baking instead so that money can be better invested in more things.

Cheese straws can be made ahead of time by letting them cool, then wrapping in sandwich wrap and putting in the freezer. When you want to serve them, reheat at 300°F for 5-8 minutes or until they’re crisp again.
This will ensure that they do not become brittle and won’t burn easily. You’ll also find that cheese straws will not taste as greasy if reheated this way compared to cooking right before serving.
Leftover cheese crackers can be stored the same way as breadcrumbs for later use.
If storing in a refrigerator, store leftover cheese crackers uncovered so moisture does not accumulate within the packaging which could cause mould to form on your cheese straws over time.

You can freeze them if you want to store them for a few weeks or months. However, they are at their best when eaten right after baked.
