Mamie Eisenhower's Favorite Spritzboaken image

These yummy spritz cookies are said to be our former first-lady's favorite spritz recipe. They are just a little different from the usual, although I personally cannot pinpoint why. Probably just the way all the good ingredients combine. But they are delicious and you'll like them, too. This recipe makes a lot of cookies; I'm guessing at the yield.

These cookies are so easy to make, even for a beginner baker like me. They're also very forgiving, so you don't have to be perfect to get great results.
