Best Spritz Cookie Recipie Ever?

Question

Would anyone mind sharing the best ever Sprtiz recipie they've used? The last one I tried was kind of bland and not very tasty. I want to make yummy ones for Christmas.

Please....I also need tips on using the cookie press from Wilton. Everytime I try to the cookies seem to stick and I have to force them of the plate.

I know you can also use different kinds of extracts, but can you mix them....say like vanilla and pepermint? Would that tatse good? Thanks and happy holidays!

Answer 1

This is my favorite spritz cookie recipe. I looked on-line first becasue i didn't want to try and dig mine out. It's made with Philadelphia brand cream cheese. You can even add food coloring to the dough for a more festive look, Enjoy!

Answer 2

Spritz

1 cup butter or margarine
2/3 cup sugar
3 egg yolks
1 tsp vanilla extract (instead of van, you could use almond)
2 & 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

Heat oven to 400F.
Mix butter, sugar, yolks, extract thoroughly. Work in flour.
(you can use food colour if desired). Using 1/4 dough at a time, force dough thru cookie press on ungreased baking sheet in desired shapes.

Bake 7-10 mins, or until set & not brown.

PS---mixing extracts---if you r making candy cane cookies, it's a mix of vanilla & almond extract to give the peppermint flavour! Pretty cool.

Happy Baking!

Everytime i make these Coconut Macaroons i become th elife of the party! When they cool, i melt some chocolate and drizzle it on top they are delicious and very easy 14 ounces sweetened shredded coconut 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract 2 extra-large egg whites at room temperature 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Combine the coconut, condensed milk, and vanilla in a large bowl. Whip the egg whites and salt on high speed in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment until they make medium-firm peaks. Carefully fold the egg whites into the coconut mixture. Drop the batter onto sheet pans lined with parchment paper using either a 1 3/4-inch diameter ice cream scoop, or 2 teaspoons. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until golden brown. Cool and serve i dip in melted chocolate
