Best Spritz Cookie Dough Recipes
BASIC SPRITZ COOKIE DOUGH FOR PRESSED COOKIES
I make these cookies every Christmas, Usually in the shape of a tree. They are one of my favorites. I sprinkle with colored sanding sugar or decorate with silver dragees. I think the silver dragees make them look elegant. This recipe was included in the directions with my Mirro Cookie/Pastry Press. P.S. I like these better than...

UNCHILLED SPRITZ COOKIE DOUGH
I have been making these buttery little cookies for Christmas every year since I was a little girl. You can color the dough any color you like or leave them plain. I sometimes color half the dough green and half red, then put two lumps of each color through the cookie press at the same tiem to create two-toned cookies. I originally got the recipe from "Better Homes & Gardens New Cook Book". You may choose to ice these cookies or not - it is completely up to you. NOTE: This recipe is NOT compatible with the Pampered Chef Cookie Press, which only works with recipes calling for far less flour. I have used a manual Wilton cookie press, and also an electric standard cookie press with great results.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Beat butter using an electric mixer on high speed for about 30 seconds.
- Add just 1 cup of the flour, all of the sugar, the egg, baking powder, vanilla, and almond extract (add a few drops of food coloring if desired).
- Beat until well combined.
- Beat in rest of the remaining 2 1/2 cups flour.
- DO NOT CHILL DOUGH.
- Force dough through a cookie press fitted with a decorative plate onto ungreased cookie sheets, following the directions on your cookie press (Leave about 1 inch between each cookie on the sheet).
- Bake in a preheated 375 F oven for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are firmed but not browned (these will not get brown when done- if they are brown, then they are burnt).
- Remove to a wire rack to let cool completely before icing.
- Mix icing ingredients, adding only as much milk as needed to get a spreading consistency.
- You will have extra icing.
- Dip tops of baked cooled cookies into icing and then into a bowl of colored sprinkles, if desired.
- Let icing on cookies firm up, then store in airtight containers.
- They freeze well.

Steps:
- 1. Beat together butter & cream cheese at high speed. Add sugar gradually until light and fluffy. Add egg yolk, lemon extract, and lemon peel. Sift flour and salt together. Add in three additions, mixing well after each. Shape dough into two rolls. Place rolls into cookie press and shape cookies directly on ungreased cookie sheet. Decorate and bake 7- 8 min in 400 degree oven. Tip: The dough works at room temp (right after you mix it). You can use the Beater Blade to the Kitchenaid Mixer (sort of triangle-y shaped one). The press uses one click per cookie. This works with the Airbake nonstick cookie sheet. The cookies brown on the bottom. So after your timer goes off, you need to lift one up off the pan to see if it's browning yet. You can substitute almond extract and omit the lemon peel for a different flavor. You can play with the extracts, just not the amount. Enjoy! I hope this helps someone out there.
