Spritz Cookies

Solving the Spritz cookie dilimena!?!?!?
The old recipe from the 60's when you were a very little curley red headed girlm Virginia

Spritz
1 cup soft butter
2/3 cup sugar
3 egg yolks
1 teaspoon vanilla or almond flavoring
Work in 2 1/2 cups flour
Chill in freezer - when ready to use spritz gun - pack small amount of dough into spritz gun - give it a minute to warm and press down the handle and make the little circles for wreaths and sprinkle with decoration of choice - I like multi-colored sprinkles or colored sugar.
Bet it works for you - only work with small amount of dough and leave the rest in the refrigerator - when it gets soft - stick your spritz gun in freezer for a minute.

Let me know if this works, Virginia - it should go well - just have to be patient when you make spritz and Aunt Emily's sugar cookie cut outs that are so thin! Just think I did all that with eight little kids at my feet - made 300 dozen cookies one year!!!!

How about a really good fudge recipe??
