]]> I was looking through an old Good Housekeeping magazine today and found an article about Kelly Ripa.  Each year at Christmas, she makes hundreds of spritz cookies using her grandmother’s recipe.  They are simple and easy.  I thought you might enjoy having this recipe on file.  You don’t have to wait until Christmas to make them.

Grandma Esther’s Spritz Cookies

1 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup sugar
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1 teaspoon almond or vanilla extract

1. Heat oven to 375 F degrees.
2. Combine butter and sugar, then add remaining ingredients. Mix thoroughly.
3. Load into cookie press. Place dough 1/2 inch apart on cookie sheet.
4. Bake 12 minutes or until edges are brown.
5. Decorate as desired.

Enjoy!
