Super Shooter Whipped Shortbread Spritz Cookies


This recipe is reported to work well in the proctor-silex super shooter or super shooter plus cookie press. It will also work with other cookie presses if the dough is refrigerated first. I lost my recipe book for the super shooter and found most spritz cookie recipes to be too stiff to work in my machine. I found this recipe through google searches at www.christmas-cookies.com.
