Spritz Cookies
Posted: November 11, 2008 Filed under: Cookies, Dessert, Holiday Recipe 6 CommentsTo prepare and make sure everything is ready for the upcoming holiday season, I made some spritz cookies practicing on the new Wilton Cookie Press Ultra Pro II. This new press works WONDERFULLY! Normally I dread making spritz cookies due to the terrible cookie presses out there, but the new Wilton Press is AMAZING!!! I was shocked how easy it is to use compared to the others and how great the cookies taste! This is my new go to holiday cookie recipe!!
ENJOY!

LOVES TO EAT 
I LOVE spritzs cookies, they are my favorite cookies of the season. I should make some. I have the same press and also love it.
Those look great! I can’t wait to make mine in December. You can even freeze them! Yummy!
Your cookies look so cute! I have bad memories of many holiday seasons with my Mom yelling and banging her cookie press around the kitchen, so I have never bothered to try one. But I may have to check out this Wilton one.
I think I just heard angels singing! You’re my hero! I asked the other day for spritz recipes and I found *some* online but I’d rather have a nestie tried and true recipe! : )
I love spritz cookies. I will try these. They look delicious!
