Gluten Free Spritz Press Cookies Recipes

GLUTEN FREE SPRITZ COOKIES RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375° F. Cream butter and sugar together until smooth. Add extracts and egg or substitute. Slowly stir in flour and salt until fully integrated. Divide dough into the number of colors you would like to make with your dough. Return one portion to the mixing bowl and add food coloring to the desired color. Remove to a separate bowl and cover to keep soft. Repeat with remaining dough. Prepare your spritz press by selecting the disc for the cookie shape you choose. Fill the spritz press with the color dough you like, then press out onto a clean, ungreased, unlined cookie sheet. The dough will not stick to the sheet and detach from the press if the cookie sheet is lined with parchment or is oiled. Follow the manufacturer's directions for specific instructions on how to use your press to make all the cookies. Sprinkle with sanding sugar or gluten free sprinkles before baking, if desired. Bake for 6-7 minutes and remove before the cookies begin to brown. Gently loosen them from the cookie sheets with a spatula while hot, then allow them to cool for 5 minutes to remove to a wire rack.

Mix until combined. Stop the mixer and scrape down the bowl. Mix for 15 seconds. Turn mixer off and add the flour and salt. Tun the mixer to medium-low. Mix until a dough forms.
• Fill a cookie press according to the manufacturer's directions. Press cookies onto prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with sugar, if desired.
• Bake until cookies are edges are golden brown, about ten minutes. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about three minutes. Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Repeat with remaining dough. (If the dough won't release from the press during the second batch of cookies, stir in a little water, about 1-3 teaspoons. Sometimes the dough stiffens between batches. Adding water solves the problem.) Allow baking sheet to cool between batches or the cookies will spread.
• Store in an airtight container for up to one week.

SPRITZ COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F/180°C/gas mark 4. Have ready two ungreased cookie sheets.
• In a small bowl, mix together the flour and salt.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter on medium speed until light, about 1 minute. Add the granulated sugar and beat for 1 minute. Add the whole egg and egg yolk and beat for 1 minute. Add the vanilla and beat until combined. Reduce the speed to low, add the flour mixture, and beat until combined.
• Here comes the fun part. Prepare your cookie press by placing the plunger on the tube part and turn to lock. Lift the plunger until it's all the way at the top. Then fill the tube with the dough from the bottom opening. Fit the disk of your choice into the bottom ring and screw on tightly. Now press the gun part (it will click each time you press the handle) until you see dough just pushing against the disk at the bottom.
• Now you're ready to press out dough. Place the end of the press firmly and evenly against a cookie sheet and press once on the gun. Lift the press. If the dough was adequately pressed against the disk, you should have a nice cookie shape on the sheet. If dough came out but did not stick, or if the shape is wonky, pick up the dough and put it back into the bowl (I told you this would be easy). Press out enough cookies to cover the cookie sheets, spacing them about 1 1/2 in/4 cm apart. Lightly sprinkle with colored sugar (if using). I usually sprinkle some with colored sugar and leave some plain.
• Bake until the cookies are light brown on the bottoms, 13 to 15 minutes. Remove to wire racks to cool completely. Repeat the process with the remaining dough, allowing the cookie sheets to cool completely. If the dough starts to seem too squishy to make defined shapes, refrigerate it for a few minutes.
• If you like melt the chocolate chips in a small saucepan over extremely low heat until just barely melted. Watch carefully to prevent burning. Remove from the heat and whisk until smooth. Line a cookie sheet with waxed paper. With a butter knife, spread a bit of melted chocolate on the bottoms of some of the cookies and press the cookies, chocolate-side down, onto the waxed paper. For sandwich cookies, spread melted chocolate on the bottom of a cookie and press the bottom of another cookie of the same shape onto the chocolate. Or drizzle melted chocolate on top of the shapes. Be creative! Let the cookies sit for about 1 hour to let the chocolate set.
• Store in an airtight container, with waxed paper between the layers, at room temperature for up to 7 days.
