Chocolate Cinnamon Spritz Cookies
2 cups sifted flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1 egg
2 Tblsp. milk
1 tsp. vanilla
2 sq. (2 oz.) unsweetened chocolate, melted and cooled
toppings to decorate
Preheat oven to 350° F.
Sift flour with salt. Cream butter; gradually add sugar, then cinnamon, creaming until light. Add egg, milk, and vanilla; beat well. Blend in chocolate, add dry ingredients and mix well.
Press a small amount of dough at a time through cookie press onto ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees F. for 6 to 9 minutes. Cool and decorate.
**Notes** - I used melted white confectioners' coating and melted chocolate confectioners' coating to decorate and them rolled in finely chopped nuts or chocolate jimmies. They were pretty on the tray!
