I’ve been baking quite a bit lately, thanks to my new KitchenAid 7-Quart Stand Mixer (enter to win here) that my friend at KithenAid sent me. This past weekend, I baked a batch of spritz cookies using my favorite cookie recipe, and they were gone in no time. (Spritz cookies are basically butter cookies made with a cookie press.)
These spritz cookies are beautiful, festive (with holiday-themed sprinkles), but more importantly, they are buttery, melt-in-your-mouth crumbly, and absolutely addictive. I got the original recipe from the packaging of a cookie cutter I bought in Malaysia and adapted the recipe to fit my taste. The recipe yields the BEST homemade cookies ever! To make the spritz cookies, I used a cookie press and chose the Christmas tree pattern.
Everyone who has tasted these cookies can’t stop raving about them, some even told me to start selling these cookies! Try this spritz cookies recipe and I’m sure you’ll love them. Happy baking!

Butter Cookies Recipe
How time flies. It was just like yesterday when the world was gearing up for Y2K bug and the potential millennium meltdown; fast forward 10 years, we are counting down to 2010, and 45 days left on 2009. It’s almost that time of year again…(get butter cookies recipe after the jump) I might be slightly early this year in terms…
Melting Moments Cookies
Looking through my baking recipes, I realize that the Spritz cookies that I baked for Christmas was quite the hit. Just before going home for the holidays, I was thinking all sorts of festive cookies I used to have in Malaysia, particularly melt in your mouth cookies, eg. Butter cookies, Sugee cookies and Cornstarch cookies. So, I decided to whip…
World Peace Cookies
By now, you should know that I am not a very good baker, even though I actually enjoy baking. There is a challenging baking recipe in my upcoming cookbook and I couldn’t get a consistent result and Pick Yin, a fellow Malaysian, came to my rescue and that’s how I discovered Life is Great, a blog about all the good…
Chocolate Chip Cookies
Remember I have a talented contributor who is a baking goddess? She is back with another popular cookie recipe (previously, she shared the recipe of cornflakes cookies)—the all-time favorite chocolate chip cookies. I have to admit that I am not the biggest fan of chocolate (I know!) but I love chocolate chip cookie because it has the the benefit of…

That looks so delicious Bee — reminds me of cookies I used to bake with Mom :)
Lovely cookies! So cute.
Cheers,
Rosa
I’ve liked rasa malaysia and kitchen aid in Facebook. my daily entry :)
opss…sorry wrong spot. :)
Thanks for sharing the recipe.
I’ll definitely have to try them, especially since they have a buttery flavor. It sounds like an excellent recipe for the Christmas holidays. I know my daughter would love to help me decorate them.
Speaking of buttery things…
I haven’t made butter cookies since I was a child. I was about nine years old. I discovered a Butter Cookie recipe in a book dated from the late 1800′s. The book was from my father’s book collection. Those cookies, turned out delicious and over the years I made them a lot. My father loved them.
You mentioned that you used a cookie press when you made the cookies, but the instructions are for rolling out the cookie dough…do you need to make any changes in the recipe in order to use a cookie press?
Thanks for letting me know. Was using an old recipe and forgot to change.
Thanks and Happy Holidays! I can’t wait to try these!
The sprinkles looks so dainty on the cookies!
Very pretty! and definitely festive, she says as her tummy rumbles.
Hi Bee,
cou;d you please post the cup measurement for the flour and cornstarch-i guess all the dry ingredients please- I don’t have a weigh scale thanks
Hi Sharon, I’m sorry but cup measurement is not precise for this cookies it has to be very accurate. It really is the best cookies.
It looks so yummy!!! Have to try this! Is this similar to “danish” butter cookies?
Yes, it is. They are really good.
Issit possible to substitute the milk powder w more actual milk coz it’s quite dear just to buy a packet of milk powder just to use 3 tablespoon?! I don’t like to waste ingredients :( I live by you’d cookbook btw it’s given me so much confidence in asian cooking!!
No because it will be too wet. You can do without the milk powder but the milk powder adds the aroma.
im making the cookies now but my mixture is still rather sticky…helppp!! do i add more plain flour??
Nevermind it all worked out! where can i send you the pictures and omg they are soooo yummy bee…ur gonna turn me into an amazing cook!
Amzi – yes, please keep rolling the dough until they are not sticky to the hand. Yes, this is the best spritz cookies ever, right?
Lovely! I will try these.

I found this handy site with a conversion chart for ounces.
Takes a little bit of math :)
Hi there
Thanks again for the fabulous recipe.
You mentioned milk powder, what sort of milk powder u used?
Thanks
Regular milk powder for adults.
Beautiful cookies….
So festive, love them …
Is it using confectioner’s sugar or regular castor sugar ? Thanks for sharing!
Powdered sugar = confectioner’s sugar.
Oooh these look good! Will finally have time to bake this weekend, might try this as it looks yum! Reminds me of the Raya style cookies from home.
Oh darn! I don’t have a scale :( I seriously need a bigger kitchen. If anyone have tried making these using cup measurements, please let me know how it turns out. Thanks!
so cute, i want to try it too.
Just 2 quick questions. Can I use normal salted butter and omit the salt? Is corn starch the same as corn flour (butterfly brand)?
Yes and yes.
Hi,
You mentioned using “3 oz powdered sugar+1 heaping tablespoon sugar (100g)”.
Do you mean 100g of sugar? I am not sure if 1 tablespoon can yield to 100g?
Your receipe sounds lovely. I would like to try for Chinese New Year later. Thanks.
Yes.
Hi, can i use a cookie cutter with this type of dough?
Hi, are the sprinkles necessary? And can I halve the recipe? How many does 1 batch make?
I have been making spritz cookies since I was a young girl. This recipe is somewhat unique for a spritz. I can’t wait to give it a try. The shape of your cookies are so uniform. Could you please share the brand cookie press you use.
I use Kuhn Rikon Clear Cookie Press. :)
I need help.. how to convert oz or gram into cup. for example
11 oz (310g)of flour– so many cups would be. Thanks
Sorry I don’t have the cup measurement. This recipe has to be very precise for the best results, cups are not precise. :(
