SUPER SHOOTER SPRITZ HOLIDAY COOKIES
This recipe is reported to work well in the Proctor-Silex Super Shooter or Super Shooter Plus cookie presses. It may be refrigerated to make dough stiffer if necessary for other cookie presses. I lost my recipe book that came with the Super Shooter and found other spritz cookie recipes to be too stiff or too sticky to work in my machine. I found this recipe through a google search at www.familyeducation.com/whatworks.

SUPER SHOOTER BASIC SPRITZ COOKIES
I found this at www.proctorsilex.com. I lost the recipe book for my super shooter plus years ago and found that regular spritz cookie recipes don't work in it!. I haven't yet tried this one yet, but will soon. I hope to add a few drops each of orange flavoring and yellow and red food coloring. I used to make a flower cookie with a "red hots" candy center that was so cute and always got compliments.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the cookies will taste. Use real butter, pure vanilla extract, and high-quality chocolate chips.
- Chill the dough before baking: This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cookies at the right temperature: The cookies should be baked at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
- Let the cookies cool completely before decorating: This will help the frosting or icing set properly.
