Serves/Makes: 96
Ready in: 30-60 minutes

  • 1 1/2 cup butter
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla or almond extract
  • 4 cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Stir together baking powder and flour. Cream the butter and the sugar until light and fluffy, add the egg and the extract. Mix in the flour/baking powder. I have found the easiest way to get the dough into the press is to scoop up a large clump of dough and roll it into a sausage shape with my hands.

Now just slip the dough into the press. Screw down the handle until it\'s ready to come out of the piping tip.

Pipe onto ungreased sheets. They expand a little but not a huge amount. I place half a candied cherry or half an almond in the middle of the swirl for decoration.

Bake for 10-12 minutes, until golden and slightly browned around the edges.
