- 1 stick softened butter
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
- 3/4 tsp almond extract
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 1/4 cups flour
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Using a stand mixer, beat together the butter, sugar, egg, vanilla and almond extract. Beat it for about 3-4 minutes; you want it to be light and fluffy. Add flour and salt and mix together on low speed until well combined.
- Fill your cookie press with the dough and attach whatever disk you want to use to shape your cookies (refer to your cookie press instructions.) Use your press to shape the dough onto your parchment lined cookie sheet leaving about 1″ between each cookie.
- Decorate the unbaked cookies with sprinkles, sanding sugar, or candied pearls.
- Bake until set and just starting to turn golden around the edges, about 6-7 minutes. Let cool completely!
So from now on you’ll be seeing the recipe right below the main image of my recipe blog posts. But you may want to scroll to the bottom of this post as there is a Nordstrom Giveaway!
A few years ago I posted a Mint Mocha Spritz recipe…Spritz dipped in a mocha glaze and sprinkled with crushed peppermint. Yum! But this recipe is a simpler more traditional Spritz. The cookie is the same but this time we are decorating them with candy pearls and silvery sugar sprinkles to turn these buttery cookies into Girly & Glam Spritz Cookies.
