SUPER SHOOTER WHIPPED SHORTBREAD SPRITZ COOKIES



Super Shooter Whipped Shortbread Spritz Cookies image

This recipe is reported to work well in the Proctor-Silex Super Shooter or Super Shooter Plus cookie press. It will also work with other cookie presses if the dough is refrigerated first. I lost my recipe book for the Super Shooter and found most spritz cookie recipes to be too stiff to work in my machine. I found this recipe through Google searches at www.christmas-cookies.com.
