Hi my fellow sweet toothers! Can you believe 18 more days until Christmas?! How is your holiday baking going? I started today with an oldie but goodie. I remember making these as a kid. My mom passed downed the cookie press to me this year. I couldn't wait to use it...
Anyone remember this?
Looks like it's been passed down a few times :). Inside includes the press with slides of different shapes for cookies and tips for frosting.
I chose the tree shape. There is a recipe on the box for cookie dough.
Ingredients:
1 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2 eggs
3 cups flour
1/4 tsp salt
teeny tinny colorful ball sprinkles.
Mix butter, sugar and vanilla together well. Add 2 eggs and combined. then add flour and salt.
I tinted my dough green with a few drops of green food coloring.
Press the dough onto an non greased cookie sheet. Then press the sprinkles on the dough.
The directions on the box said to bake at 400 degrees for 10-12 mins...
Yea I don't think so :). I brought the heat down to 375 and baked for 6-7 mins.
So tinny and yummy! Brings back great memories.
These will for sure adorn our cookie platters again. It's been awhile.
Happy Holiday Baking & Happy Sweet Tooth Saturday!
Looks like there are new aged cookie presses out there ;)
