How to Make Cocoa Spritz Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. If the dough is too sticky, add 1/8 to 1/4 cup of additional flour, 1 tablespoon at a time, until it reaches a consistency that holds its shape in the cookie press.
  7. Fill your cookie press with the dough. If the dough is too soft, chill it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before using the cookie press.
  8. Press the cookies onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
  9. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the cookies are lightly browned.
  10. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
