Banana Spritz Cookies -Philadelphia Eagles Underdog Super Bowl Cookies:@)

Dog masks have flown off the shelves of retailers and Philly is embracing the idea that the Eagles are underdogs in the Superbowl! So... I had a little fun and made some Banana Spritz Cookies with the dog disc and my cookie press. The little bones are Halloween sprinkles and just too cute:@) The banana flavor of these cookies is very nice folks, don't hesitate to whip up a batch using whatever disc you'd like-for any occasion.

We've all been enjoying this ride:@)

Banana Spritz Cookies-from Family Cookbook Project
1 C shortening
2/3 C sugar
1 large egg yolk
1/2 C mashed ripe banana-very ripe for the best flavor
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp vanilla
3 C A/P bleached flour
  1. Beat shortening and sugar until creamy.
  2. Beat in yolk, mix in banana, salt and vanilla.

  4. Fill cookie press, form cookies onto ungreased cold cookie sheets. Decorate with colored sugar or sprinkles if desired.
  5. Bake at 375 degrees for 8-10 minutes, cool on rack.
