Spritz Stix (Pepperkakor, Coffee, Swedish Spice, Orange Pecan...

"Look and taste just like spritz cookies, but you don't need a cookie press. There are a lot of different flavors listed here, so the first part of the ingrediant list is to make the regular flavored ones and anything that is marked optional is what you add to make the other flavors. Listing it this way seemed easier than listing it over and over to get in all the different flavors, so I hope it makes sense listed all together like this. Enjoy!"

  1. I made the coffee variety and they were delicious! I doubled the coffee, but otherwise prepared as directed. I made some with the spritz attachment on my cookie press, and some with one of the press' other shapes. To make them extra fancy, I drizzled some melted white and dark chocolate over them. They were to die for! I'd rate them 10 stars if I could. Thanks for posting! I know I'll be making them again.
