GLUTEN FREE SPRITZ COOKIES RECIPES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400ºF.
• Combine all ingredients except gluten-free flour blend in bowl; beat at medium speed until creamy. Add flour blend; beat until well mixed
• Fit cookie press with desired template; fill with cookie dough. Press dough, 2 inches apart, onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake 7-9 minutes or until edges are lightly browned.

Steps:

• Adjust oven rack to middle position and preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Beat together butter, sugar, and vanilla on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about two minutes. Stop the mixer once or twice to scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add the egg. Mix until combined. Stop the mixer and scrape down the bowl. Mix for 15 seconds. Turn mixer off and add the flour and salt. Tun the mixer to medium-low. Mix until a dough forms.
• Fill a cookie press according to the manufacturer’s directions. Press cookies onto prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with sugar, if desired.
• Bake until cookies are edges are golden brown, about ten minutes. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about three minutes. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely. 
• Repeat with remaining dough. (If the dough won't release from the press during the second batch of cookies, stir in a little water, about 1-3 teaspoons. Sometimes the dough stiffens between batches. Adding water solves the problem.) Allow baking sheet to cool between batches or the cookies will spread.
• Store in an airtight container for up to one week.
