Spritz Cookies
Report
These make-ahead classic Spritz Cookies fit perfectly with the rest of my Holiday cookie collection. They are super easy to make, melt-in-your-mouth delicious, buttery, perfectly sweetened, and have a wonderful hint of almond flavor. Decorate them any way you like, dip them in chocolate, cover them in sprinkles, you decide!
