Ingredients

  • 1 cup (2 sticks or 226g) room temperature butter
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp. almond extract
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp. salt

Strawberry Spritz

  • 1/4 tsp. strawberry extract
  • pink gel food coloring

Chocolate Spritz

  • 1/4 cup cocoa

Instructions

  • Heat oven to 400°F. Combine butter, sugar, egg and extract in mixer. 
  • Blend at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until creamy. Add flour and salt, and blend at low speed until well mixed. Divide and tint dough, if desired.
  • To make Rose Cookie Spritz, insert a 1M or 2D tip into pastry bag. Fill bag with cookie dough. I found that if the dough was a bit warm (as in heated by the warmth from my hands) it was easier to pipe out these cookies.
  • Bake for 5 to 8 minutes, or until slightly golden.

To make Strawberry Spritz Cookies:

  • Replace vanilla extract with 1/4 teaspoon strawberry. Tint dough with pink gel food coloring.

To make Chocolate Spritz Cookies:

  • Replace 1/4 cup of flour with 1/4 cup of cocoa. Do not use almond extract.
