ALMOND SPRITZ COOKIES RECIPE - NYT COOKING



Almond Spritz Cookies Recipe - NYT Cooking image

A holiday classic found in nearly every cookie box, these almond-flavored treats are buttery, crisp and all too easy to eat by the handful (fear not, this recipe makes a lot). Spritz cookies also keep well, for up to two weeks stored in an airtight container at room temperature. If you don’t have a spritz gun, you can use a pastry bag to form them. Or, for more rustic versions, skip the pressing altogether. Chill the dough for an hour, then roll out 1-inch balls, placing them 1 ½ inches apart on the baking sheets, then use a fork to flatten them. A sprinkle of colored sugar makes everything pretty.

Provided by Melissa Clark

Total Time 1 hours

Yield 4 dozen cookies

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup/225 grams unsalted butter, preferably cultured, softened
3/4 cup/150 grams granulated sugar
1 large egg, at room temperature
3/4 teaspoon almond extract
1/2 teaspoon fine sea or table salt
2 cups/250 grams all-purpose flour
1/4 cup/25 grams almond flour or meal
Decorative sugar or festive sprinkles, for finishing

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees. Using a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment or a hand-held electric mixer and a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce speed to low, add the egg and almond extract, and mix until well-combined and smooth.
  • With speed still on low, gradually add both flours and the salt until just incorporated.
  • Fill a cookie press with dough, or use a piping bag fitted with a decorative piping tip with a large opening (about 1/2-inch). Press or pipe the dough onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving about 1 inch between cookies. Sprinkle cookies with decorative sugar or sprinkles.
  • Bake until firm to the touch and golden brown at edges, 12 to 17 minutes. Transfer sheets to a wire rack to cool slightly, then use a spatula to remove cookies from the baking sheets when they’re still warm (which is easier to do than when they’ve cooled completely).

ALMOND SPRITZ PRESS COOKIES RECIPE - FOOD.COM



Almond Spritz Press Cookies Recipe - Food.com image

These are my hubby's favorite Christmas cookies. His Great Aunt Gin used to make them for him every year and it just isn't Christmas without them. She always made green Christmas Trees and pink Wreaths because those were her two favorite colors. Since they use all shortening they are a very crisp cookie. The recipe is originally from the cookbook that came with the Mirro cookie press. NOTE: you must sift the flour first and then measure or you will add too much flour and the dough will be too stiff! (If you prefer a butter cookie, I recommend Recipe #98883)

Total Time 16 minutes

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cook Time 6 minutes

Yield 72 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup shortening
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg
2 1/4 cups sifted flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon almond extract
food coloring

Steps:

  • Cream shortening, adding sugar in gradually.
  • Add unbeaten egg, sifted dry ingredients, flavoring and a few drops of food coloring. Mix well. (NOTE: you must sift the flour first and then measure or you will add too much flour and the dough will be too stiff!).
  • Fill cookie press. Form cookies on ungreased cookie sheets using the tree plate. Decorate with tiny multi-colored sprinkles.
  • Bake at 400°F for 6-8 minutes. Cool just slightly and remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack. (If you wait too long, they will break when you try to move them.).
