Name: Cinnamon Spritz
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 10 min
Total time: 25 min
Yield: 4-1/2 dozen.
Ingredients: 1 cup butter, softened; 3/4 cup sugar; 1 egg yolk; 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; 2 cups all-purpose flour; 1-1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon; 1/4 teaspoon salt; Semisweet chocolate chips

With lots of cinnamon flavor, these rich buttery cookies are similar to a classic Snickerdoodle. The dough is so easy to work with.

Ingredients

1 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg yolk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1-1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
Semisweet chocolate chips

Directions

In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg yolk and vanilla. Combine the flour, cinnamon and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well.
Using a cookie press fitted with the disk of your choice, press dough 2 in. apart onto ungreased baking sheets. Press chocolate chips into cookies as desired. Bake at 375° for 8-10 minutes or until set. Remove to wire racks. Store in an airtight container.

Editor’s Note: A pastry bag fitted with a coupler and #32 star tip can be substituted for a cookie press. Pipe dough into concentric circles or shapes of your choice.

I wouldn't soften the butter for spritz cookies, the texture won't come out right from the cookie press.
