Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
These are actually called "Spritz" cookies but Reed now just calls the "my favorite cookies".
I usually only made these at Christmas and colored them red and green but Reed just loves these so we now make them anytime of the year and color them according to the season. Ex. Pastels at Easter/Spring, red, white and blue for the 4th of July. Rainbow colors whenever. We also like to mix the colors in the cookie press.
