Brad got a cookie gun for Christmas so we decided to make some Spritz. We called Grandma Packer for her recipe. Turns out that it is her mother's, Great-Grandma Scofield's Spritz Cookie recipe. Yummy.
1 cup butter
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg
1 tsp almond flavoring
2 1/4 cup flour
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
food coloring
colored sugar crystals
Mix butter and sugar well. Add egg & flavoring. Mix in dry ingredients. Dough will be kind of stiff. Can add food coloring. Put in gun and pump out shapes. Can sprinkle colored sugar. Bake at 375 for 10 minutes. Take out before brown as they will continue to bake on the pan.
(As a side note, we did not have almond extract. We substituted vanilla, but it would have been better with almond.)
