Quick Mix Spritz Cookies image

Another favorite recipe from the booklet supplied with the Mirro brand Cookie & Pastry Press. There is no refrigeration required. I searched Zaar for the spritz cookie recipes I use from this book, to share with a fellow chef, but they weren't posted yet. *For tips on obtaining the best results possible with your cookie press, check out my photo demo in the Kitchen Gadgets & Appliances forum; click the link on my profile page or copy and paste this address: http://www.food.com/bb/viewtopic.zsp?t=330463. I do not believe the forums are accessible anymore, so check out my original post on my personal blog here: http://tinkstreats.blogspot.com/2010/03/mirro-cookie-pastry-press.html#links

Time 22m

Yield 5-6 dozen cookies

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 1/4 cups sifted flour
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup butter (refrigerator temp or only slightly softened, margarine or shortening can be subbed)
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Sift flour, sugar, salt and baking powder together in a bowl.
  • With a pastry blender or two knives, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles pie crust or biscuit mix (very fine lumps).
  • Crack an egg into a glass, liquid measuring cup. A large egg will measure 1/4 cup. If it doesn't, add water to reach the 1/4 cup line.
  • Add the egg, water (if needed) and the vanilla to the flour mixture and beat the mixture well.
  • Fill cookie press and form cookies on ungreased cookie sheets (aluminum preferred for best heat distribution).
  • Bake at 375°F for 10-12 minutes or until cookies are just set or very slightly browned. Check cookies at the 10 minute mark and bake 1-2 minutes longer, if needed.
  • Remove immediately to cooling racks.

I made these cookies gluten-free by using almond flour. They were still delicious.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I used sunflower seeds instead. They turned out just as good!
