I don't have a cookie press! Can I just make little balls and flatten them with a sugar-dipped glass?

well, it say's thawed lemonade concentrate, so that would be the frozen kind.

It says thawed lemon concentrate so I would guess it's the canned frozen lemonade.

I am unclear as to if you are using powdered concentrate of frozen concentrate. Some one please advise as they sound delicious!

Are you using powder (Countrytime) or frozen concentrate?
