Cinnamon sugar goodess

Last night at home means last chance to bake for my family. Digging through my mother's drawer of baking goodies, I found her old cookie press, and went to town:

Cinnamon Sugar Spritz cookies (adapted from Food Network website)

  • 1 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 2 sticks unsalted butter
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 2 cups sifted flour
  • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
Blend sugar and butter until creamy. Add egg, vanilla, and cinnamon. In a separate bowl, blend dry ingredients and add incrementally to wet ingredients. Once blended, put dough into a cookie press. Place shapes onto a buttered cookie sheet and bake at 350 degress Fahrenheit for 10 minutes or until crisp.
