"Un-Spritzed" Cookies

 This cookie is called "un-spritzed" because it takes the dough of a spritzer cookie and instead of pushing it through the cookie press, you simply roll and stamp or flatten with a fork.  It saves a little time and they look really pretty if you have nice cookie stamps!


Ingredients:

  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 2-1/4 cups flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • dash salt
  • 1 tsp almond extract
Directions:

  1. Cream butter until light and fluffy; add sugar. 
  2. Add egg, unbeaten; beat well.
  3. Add dry ingredients and extract.
  4. Roll in balls and and place 1 inch apart on cookie sheet. Press down with stamp or fork.
  5. Put some coloured sugar or sprinkles on them.
  6. Bake in preheated 350F oven for 9-12 minutes until the bottoms just start to brown.
  7. Cool for a few minutes on tray before transferring to cooling rack.
    The cookies before they are sprinkled and baked.
