Spritz Cookies
My family has been making this spritz cookie recipe for Christmas for over 40 years! It's one of my holiday favorites—the cookies are buttery, tender, and delicious. Form them into festive shapes with your cookie press, and decorate with sprinkles and colored sugar!

Use a cookie press to press the dough onto two large ungreased baking sheets, leaving at least 1 inch between cookies. If the cookies come out of the press loose or unformed, chill the dough in the refrigerator for ⏱️ 30 minutes to firm up.
6
Top the cookies with colored sugar or sprinkles and bake, one sheet at a time, for 8 to ⏱️ 10 minutes, or until lightly golden brown around the edges. Let cool on the baking sheets for ⏱️ 2 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
