Sugar Free Spritz Cookies
Sugar Free Spritz Cookies, a simple and classic holiday Christmas cookie recipe that can be with low carb option.
Servings: 36
Equipment
- Cookie Press
Ingredients
- 1 cup Butter - softened to room temperature
- ⅔ cup Splenda - see post for alternatives
- 1 Egg
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- ½ tsp Almond Extract
- 2 ¼ cups All Purpose Flour -see post for alternatives.
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350. Do not prep your cookie sheets especially with grease.
- In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter with the sugar alternative. Once this is creamy you can mix in the egg and the extracts. Then stir in the flour.
- Use a cookie press to place the cookies on the cookie sheet about two inches apart. If the cookie dough gets too runny, try refrigerating the cookie sheets and try again.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges begin to brown. Remove the cookie sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to set on the cookie sheets before transferring to a rack to finish cooling.
Recipe Notes
I mentioned that spritz cookies are cookies that rely upon the creaming of the butter with the granular sugar alternative. For best results when using a cookie press, use fresh cookie dough that is at room temperature.
Also mentioned was that this cookie works best when baked on an ungreased cookie sheet.
Prepping the cookie sheet before placing the cookies on to them can cause the cookies to spread and become flat. If your cookie dough does seem to be a bit loose when it comes out of the cookie press, try refrigerating the cookie sheet before placing the cookies on to it.
