Spritz Christmas Cookies

Spritz cookies are crisp buttery cookies specially made during the holiday season. These cookies doesn't have any levening agents like baking soda or baking powder. I adapted this recipe from here and I tried with both normal whole wheat  flour as well as whole wheat pastry flour. With pastry flour the cookies are crispier:) If we are not having cookie press, we can make small rounds with our hands or can also use pastry bags with star nozzle but I haven't personally tried it.


Ingredients:
  • Whole Wheat Pastry flour - 1 cup + 3 Tbsp (I used Organic whole wheat pastry flour)*
  • Butter - 1/2 cup, softened at room temperature
  • Powdered sugar or Icing Sugar - 1/2 cup + 3 Tbsp (I powdered the organic unrefined cane sugar)
  • Corn starch - 1/4 cup + 3 Tbsp
  • Milk - 2 Tbsp (at room temperature)
