... to make spritz cookies. Yum!

Spritz cookies are a tradition in our house. They are pretty scrumptious and fun to make. I will kinda walk you through making the amazing Spritz cookie.
First the recipe: If you can read that, good for you. It's in my mom's old Better Homes and Garden Cook Book.
The set up: Note the spiffy recipe book holder my mom got last year for Christmas. Very handy.
The Mix Up: Mixing seems pretty easy, but the dough gets supper thick and you will have to mix it by hand after awhile. Unless you wanted to break your mixer...
The plop: The unique thing about spritz cookies is their shape. You use a special thing-a-ma-jig to create the cookie shape. Just shove a bunch of dough in there, pick your shape stencil, and crank out the cookies.
The cookie: Voila! The incredibly delicious Spritz cookie!
