Get into the holiday spirit with these aromatic and buttery Cardamom Spritz Christmas Cookies! Whip up a batch of these delightful treats and make your Christmas extra special!
In the bowl of your stand mixer, with the paddle attachment on, cream the softened butter with the powdered sugar for 2 minutes on medium low speed.
6.70 oz butter, 2.47 oz powdered sugar
Add the egg white. Stir on your lowest setting until mostly combined (1 minute) it will curdle, that's normal. IMPORTANT: Do not over mix.
1 egg white
Gradually add the all-purpose flour mixed with the ground cardamom and sea salt. Continue to stir on low until just combined.
7.94 oz all-purpose flour, 1 tsp ground cardamom, 1/4 tsp sea salt
Place the dough in your Pastry Bag with the star tip on. Massage it for a minute in order to get the dough warmer. Then, pipe your spritz cookie into an "S" shape.
BAKE!
Preheat oven to 350F/180C. Bake for 10 minutes (Every oven heats differently, monitor your cookies from 8 minutes). It is ready when they don't look quite done and barely golden around the edge, the top staying soft.
Once your Cardamom "Spritz" Christmas Cookies are out of the oven, let them cool down completely on your baking sheet. When ready, slide them onto a serving plate to share or store them in a tin metal box (They stay fresh up to 3 weeks). Bon Appétit & Happy Holidays!
