JELLO SPRITZ COOKIES

Steps:

• Sift the flour with baking powder. In a separate bowl, cream butter with sugar, Jello, egg and vanilla. Add the dry (i.e., flour) to the wet (i.e., butter mixture). A stand mixer will make life easier but you can certainly do it all by hand.
• Preheat your oven to 400°. Form your cookies by whatever method you desire. The original recipe calls for an ungreased cookie sheet (and you will need this if using a cookie press) but since we were doing a lot of baking we used parchment paper and they turned out beautifully. If you want, decorate the cookies with sanding sugar. Bake for 13-14 minutes or until just golden brown at the edges. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
• If you're making small cookies the recipe will yield about 5 dozen. Still, we suggest making two batches: one green (lime-flavored Jello) and one red (raspberry-flavored Jello).
