Since 2021 I started sharing "12 Days of Christmas Cookies" on my Youtube channel and it has been so much fun and I am very happy that some of you have had the chance to put in practice some of those recipes and cookie decorating tutorials!

Normally at this time of the year is when I get more cookie orders and also as a family we have the tradition to make cookies for our friends  Although we like to make the same Christmas cookies every year is fun to add something new, so each year I try to add a new cookie recipe to our repertoire. 

In the 2021 "12 Days of Christmas cookies" the most popular video has been the one where I explained how to use a cookie press gun and also shared the cookie recipe that is very similar to the traditional spritz cookie recipe. 

 

You can find the recipe at the end of this post as well. 

I LOVE this recipe, not only because you don't need any fancy equipment, but because the cookies are so delicious and super soft. 

Also you can make so many different styles of cookies with that soft cookie dough. 

I invite you this year to come a long with me in another "12 Days of Christmas Cookies" it is going to be fun and I am pretty sure you will find something new to try! 

Here is the recipe:
