Spritz Cookie Recipe
This Spritz Cookie Recipe is a favorite for Christmas as it uses a cookie press and makes a large batch of cookies. These sugar cookies have a great butter flavor and can be decorated as you like or left plain.
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
- 2/3 cup granulated white sugar
- 1 large egg, slightly beaten
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 2 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- sprinkles , optional for decoration
- icing, optional for decoration
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Line a rimmed baking sheet with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar together using a handheld electric mixer or stand mixer.
- Mix in the large egg and pure vanilla extract.
- In a separate mixing bowl, mix flour and baking powder together. Gradually, add flour mixture to the egg mixture.
- Add the cookie batter into the cookie press and press cookies onto the prepared baking sheet. At this point, you can add sprinkles if you wish.
- Bake in the preheated oven, on the center rack in the middle of the oven for best results, and bake in batches.
- When the cookies are done, allow them to cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet and then transfer them to a wire cooling rack. Decorate with icing if you wish.
- To save time you can bake on multiple baking sheets at the same time.
Notes
- The cookie dough needs to be at room temperature to work well with the cookie press. It doesn't work well if it's too warm or too cold.
