Spritz Cookies
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

  2. Add 1 cup of softened, unsalted butter and 1 cup of granulated sugar to a large bowl. Cream together with an electric mixer for 1-2 minutes until fluffy.

  3. Next add in 1 egg, 1 tsp of vanilla and ¼ tsp of almond extract and combine until pale in color and fluffy, 1-2 minutes.

  4. Then add in 2 ½ cups of all purpose flour and ½ tsp of salt. Mix just until all is combined. The cookie dough will be soft.

  5. Transfer the dough to a spritz cookie press set with decorative top piece. Press each cookie onto a cookie sheet about 1 inch apart. (They should not spread very much.) Sprinkle the cookies with desired sprinkles before baking.

  6. Bake the cookies for 7-9 minutes.

  7. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes and then transfer them to a cooling rack to finish cooling completely.

  8. After they are cool, drizzle melted chocolate over some if you desire.

  9. Store the leftover cookies in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
