Classic Spritz Cookies
When I think holiday cookie, my first thought goes straight to these Classic Spritz Cookies. Not only are they so dainty and pretty, they’re quite delicious as well. Spritz cookies first originated in Scandinavian countries as a traditional holiday treat. The dough is squirted through a cookie press, which is what makes their unique and delicate shapes. Spritz actually comes from the German word “spritzen”. Can you guess what that means? To squirt! Which makes sense when you see how these cookies are made. Crunchy and sweet, I really do believe this is the perfect cookie!
