Machine biscuits

Spritz cookies are part of our Christmas season every year. Fresh from the oven and still warm, they are a real treat. Shaped through the mincer, they get the characteristic design that makes them so special. With the following instructions, it has never been so easy to conjure up homemade shortbread.

Directions

50 min.
1. Step

To bake shortbread from the mincer, place the butter, sugar and vanilla sugar in a bowl and mix together until you have a creamy mixture. In my experience, lukewarm butter combines more easily and evenly with the sugar.

2. Step

Now add the egg yolks and mix everything thoroughly again. This makes the batter nice and smooth and gives it a velvety texture.

3. Step

Mix the flour and baking powder in a separate bowl and then gradually add to the butter-sugar-egg mixture and stir in. You will notice that the batter is now getting firmer. But don't worry, that's just right.

4. Step

Pass the dough through the mincer in sections. I have found that dusting the mincer attachment well with flour beforehand works well for me. This makes it much easier to turn through.

5. Step

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees.

6. Step

Place the shortbread on a baking tray lined with baking paper and bake in the oven for about 10 minutes.

7. Step

Remove the pastries from the oven when they are golden brown and leave to cool.

8. Step

I love to make this recipe during the holidays. The whole family can help and the result is simply delicious. Sometimes I sprinkle powdered sugar on the shortbread to my heart's content.
