What is "spritzgebäck"?
Spritzgebäck is a type of German cookie that is made from a simple dough of butter, sugar, flour, and egg yolks. The dough is shaped into a variety of shapes using a cookie press or a pastry bag fitted with a star-shaped nozzle. The cookies are then baked until they are golden brown and crispy. Spritzgebäck cookies have a delicate, buttery flavor and a light, crumbly texture that melts in your mouth. They are often enjoyed with a cup of coffee or tea and are a popular holiday treat in Germany and other European countries. Spritzgebäck cookies can be decorated with sprinkles, chocolate, or other toppings to add a festive touch.
