• Fill a cookie press with the dough, and turn out cookies 1 to 2 inches apart onto an unbuttered baking sheet. Sprinkle cookies with colored sanding sugars.
• Bake until the cookies are lightly browned, 7 to 10 minutes. To ensure even baking, rotate sheet halfway through the baking process. Transfer to a wire rack, and let cool.

SPRITZ COOKIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325 degrees. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder and salt.
• In another bowl, using an electric mixer, beat together butter and sugar on medium-high until the mixture is superlight, fluffy and pale, about 5 minutes. Scrape down sides of the bowl and add in two eggs, one at a time, and vanilla extract and beat until everything is well combined, about 2 minutes.

SPRITZ COOKIES FOR COOKIE PRESS

Steps:

• Step 1: Cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
• Step 2: Add egg and vanilla, mix until smooth. Scrape down the sides of the bowl to ensure all of the ingredients are combined.
• Step 3: Now, split the mixture in half. I press it down evenly in the bowl and then draw a line. Scoop one half into another bowl Not precise, but it works. One half (bowl) will be the classic version and the other half will be the chocolate version.
• Step 4:
• To the Classic version:
• add 1 3/4 cup flour and combine. I start with 1 1/2 cups flour and see if that is enough. We want a soft dough. If I add too much flour it becomes crumbly and won't work in the cookie press. Thus, I start with a lower amount of flour and if needed, add more.
• To the Chocolate version:
• add 1/8 cup sugar, 1 1/2 cups flour and 2 1/2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder.
• Step 5: Add the dough to your cookie press and press the cookies onto a cookie sheet. Decorate with colored sugar and sprinkles. Bake in a 375 degree oven for about 10 minutes; or until the edges are a light golden brown. Let them cool for two minutes and then transfer to a cooling rack.
• As I said earlier, these cookies are not just for Christmas. You can make these all year round by changing the press and decorations. Imagine the possibilities.... recipe from: https://www.funinkeywest.com/2-best-ways-to-make-pampered-chef-spritz-cookie-recipe/.
