Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375°.
- Mix dry ingredients and set aside.
- Cream butter, mix in powdered sugar.
- Add egg yolks, vanilla, and almond extract.
- Gradually beat in flour mixture.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Use a cookie press and decorate with colored sugar. Bake for 5 minutes and allow to cool for 2-3 on the sheet before transferring to wax paper or wire rack. I usually use two baking sheets so the one I am using isn't too warm or it will start to melt the dough and you'll have trouble with the press.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Beat the shortening with the sugars and the peanut butter until well mixed. Beat in the egg and the water.
- Gradually beat in the flour, baking soda and salt. Form cookies on an ungreased baking sheet with a cookie press or roll into balls and smash flat with a floured fork or fingers.
- Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 12 minutes or more until done, usually when the puffed up cookie has lowered down to level. Before then it is more chewy.
- For High Altitude, omit water and add eggs last, mixing well, but not beating them as at sea level. Raise the temperature to 390 degrees F (200 degrees C). Or use a convection oven at 312 degrees F (155 degrees C) for 15 min works even better.

EXTREME MELT-IN-YOUR-MOUTH STEAKS
Not only are these these most delicious steaks they are so tender you can slice them with a butter knife! --- of coarse you may use any cut of steak desired, I prefer rib-eyes --- plan ahead the steaks needs to marinate for 6-24 hours and must be brought down to room temperature before cooking which may take a couple hours.

Tips:
- Use softened butter: Softened butter will cream together with the sugar more easily, resulting in a smooth and creamy cookie dough.
- Chill the dough: Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
- Use a cookie press: A cookie press is a great way to create perfectly shaped cookies with ease. You can find cookie presses at most kitchen stores.
- Bake the cookies until the edges are just set: Overbaking the cookies will make them dry and crumbly. The cookies are done when the edges are just set and the centers are still a little soft.
- Let the cookies cool completely before storing them: This will help the cookies keep their shape and prevent them from becoming soft and chewy.
Conclusion:
Spritz cookies are a delicious and festive cookie that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized with a variety of flavors and colors. With a little planning and effort, you can create beautiful and delicious spritz cookies that everyone will love.
