Great-Grandmas Swedish Spritz Recipe

Ingredients

• 2 cups butter
• 1 cup white sugar
• 2 egg yolks
• 1 egg white
• 2 tablespoons almond extract
• 4.5 cups all-purpose flour

Steps

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet.
2. Beat butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Slowly beat in sugar until noticeably lighter in color. Add egg yolks, one at a time, beating well after each addition before adding the next. Beat in egg white and almond extract. Beat in flour in small amounts; continue beating until fully incorporated.
3. Press dough onto the prepared baking sheet using a cookie press.
4. Bake in the preheated oven until edges are golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool cookies on the baking sheet for 1 minute before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
