I’m coming at you again today with a new cookie for your holiday cookie tray. It’s been here a cookie, there a cookie, everywhere a cookie cookie around here for the last few weeks, and I’m not mad about it! These Chai Spiced Spritz Cookies will be one of the easiest cookies on the tray. And soooo delicious!

The warm spices of chai have always given me all the cozy warm feels, especially during the winter months. Cinnamon, cardamon, ginger, cloves and allspice are well stocked in my spice cabinet for when the craving hits. My Chai Snickerdoodles are another favorite here at the BHK.

And who doesn’t love spritz cookies during the holiday season? My OXO cookie press does all the work, and I’m all in for easy during the busy holidays.

What is a spritz cookie?

Spritz cookies are a kind of German Christmas cookie called Spritzgeback. They’re made from flour, butter, sugar and eggs. They’re similar to a sugar cookie. The cookies are made by squirting the dough through a cookie press.

These cookies are light, buttery, sweet and crisp with just the perfect amount of chai flavor. The cookie press makes them super easy to make. There’s no need to chill the dough and the cookies freeze really well too. These are the perfect cookies to make and decorate with the kiddos this holiday season. Enjoy!

A Few Cook’s Notes for Chai Spiced Spritz Cookies Recipe:

As mentioned above, I love my OXO cookie press. This is not a sponsored post. I just wanted to share what I prefer to use when I make my spritz cookies.

These cookies are perfect for your holiday cookie swap. They travel and package wonderfully.

The cookies will keep in an airtight container for one week.

Nothing beats an easy sheet pan meal. This Sheet P Nothing beats an easy sheet pan meal. This Sheet Pan Gnocchi and Veggies is one of our favorites.⁣
You don’t even need to boil the gnocchi beforehand. The gnocchi gets lightly browned and crispy on the outside, while the texture on the inside is slightly chewy and tender as it bakes in the oven.⁣
The veggies are a combination of mini bell peppers, red onion, grape tomatoes and garlic. Everything gets tossed with some salt, pepper, fresh rosemary and olive oil. While the mixture is roasting, the tomatoes burst making somewhat of an extra little sauce. This is a <30 minute meal from start to finish and one that always saves the day!⁣
