Cute and Easy Spritz Cookies for Hina Matsuri (Doll Festival)
I used to make easy spritz cookies but decided to arrange the cookies as a gift for hina matsuri. As usual it's hassle free but I wanted to make something that looks a bit elegant and sophisticated.
It's better not to use vanilla essence or butter if you want to maintain its Japanese flavor. Please enjoy the anko and matcha flavor. Recipe by Yuu choco mama

Cooking Instructions
- 1
For a variation on this recipe, see
- 2
Melt the margarine and milk in the microwave for 5-10 seconds. I recommend using margarine to play up the flavors of matcha and anko.
- 3
Add in the sugar and mix well.
- 4
Add the flour and mix. There's no need to sift.
- 5
Divide the dough roughly into 4 parts. Mix in about the same amount of anko (not listed in ingredients) as the dough.
- 6
The anko dough will be a larger quantity due to the addition of anko so take care to set aside a smaller portion.
- 7
Make the red food coloring cookie dough and matcha dough. Adjust the food coloring/matcha powder according to your own taste.
- 8
Stack each dough on a piece of plastic wrap.
- 9
Roll the wrap as though you are using a sushi rolling mat. Take care not to roll the plastic wrap into the dough.
- 10
Put the plastic-wrapped roll into a pastry bag. A bigger pastry bag will be easier to use. Here, I used a star-shaped tip.
- 11
Pipe the dough in a circular fashion. The individual colored dough will come out beautifully together.
- 12
Piping a wavy pattern is beautiful too.
- 13
If you pipe the dough into smaller cookies, they'll be similar to hina arare (Doll Festival cookies) and look cuter.
- 14
If decorating with dragées they should be sprinkled on the cookie dough before baking. If decorating with chocolate wait until the cookies are baked.
- 15
Preheat oven to 170°C (338 Fahrenheit). Bake for 12-15 minutes at 170°C (338 Fahrenheit). Adjust time according to the brownness of the cookies.
- 16
Even a little bit of decoration makes these cookies cute! The kids loved them.
- 17
Decorated with sugar craft. It's ideal for times when you want to make just a little.

Sakura Spritz Cookies Sakura Spritz Cookies
I bought a sakura-shaped nozzle thinking to myself, "I'm going to make cookies!". But whenever adding food coloring to my usual recipe the batter always becomes orange when I mix it with egg yolk. I thought up a recipe that resulted in a beautiful sakura color.Add the milk or heavy cream a little at a time! It's best to bring it to room temperature.The nice sakura color will fade if you bake them too long, so keep an eye on them as they bake. Less sugar makes the cookies less likely to burn and results in a prettier color. Recipe by haco858

Easy Spritz Cookies, Gorgeous Flowers & Hearts Easy Spritz Cookies, Gorgeous Flowers & Hearts
I didn't really like the simple coloring of baked sweets in general, and came up with this recipe while I was in grade school, thinking it'll be perfect for many celebrations, such as enrollment, commencement, etc. I've been using it as a gift during many occasions for many years ever since.Following a request I received, I listed katakuriko potato starch as a substitute ingredient for corn starch, but I changed it to cake flour since although using katakuriko starch made it easier to pipe, the grooved pattern didn't come out that well.The grooved pattern will come out better when the dough is firm.When using powdered food coloring, dissolve with warm water or water, and color it stronger.If the dough seems too firm during the winter etc., soften by adding water or milk (no more than about 10 ml) or by warming it up a bit.I made the dough in the photo by putting the colored dough between the non-colored ones.The coloring will come out nicely that way.

Purple Sweet Potato Spritz Cookies Purple Sweet Potato Spritz Cookies
I wanted to make a cute purple cookies decorated with heart-shaped sugar decorations.Apparently purple sweet potatoes turn green when combined with egg, so to keep the beautiful color I didn't use any eggs. However I also heard that if you add a bit of lemon juice to the purple yam it neutralizes the pH so you can add eggs.When you first add the milk the butter will split, but if you keep mixing it it will come together.You can use maraschino cherries or almond slices instead of the sugar hearts. You can also use cocoa powder or green tea in place of the purple sweet potato powder.You can also substitute margarine for the butter and heavy cream for the milk. Recipe by Milk to Cocoa to Momo -

I was supposed to have a booth at a Sakura Festival. Since cookies were highlighted at the booths, I came up with this recipe through trial and error. In the end, we did not have cookies at the booth, but I wanted to make it into a recipe anyway.These cookies would be even more spring-like with some chopped up salted cherry leaves. Cut the dough with sakura, or petal-shaped cookie cutters!Since it is very simple, it may be a good idea to add some fragrance to the dough.Add very small amount of food coloring at a time! The dough becomes quite dark when the food coloring dissolves in liquid! Recipe by Ma--yu -
