Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Line 2 or 3 large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- In a large bowl, using a handheld mixer or a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter and granulated sugar together on medium-high speed until smooth, about 2 minutes. Add the egg, vanilla extract, and almond extract, and beat on high speed until combined, about 1 minute. Scrape down the sides and up the bottom of the bowl and beat again as needed to combine.
- On low speed, beat in the flour and salt. Turn up to high speed and beat until completely combined.
- Follow cookie press manufacturer's directions to fit your cookie press with a decorative plate. Scrape some of the dough into your cookie press. Hold the cookie press perpendicular to the lined baking sheet and press out the cookies 2 inches (5 cm) apart. If desired, decorate the shaped cookie dough with sprinkles or press a chocolate chip into the center. Note: It's helpful to lightly brush the shaped cookie dough with water before adding sprinkles-this helps them stick.
- If the cookie dough becomes too soft as you work, chill the shaped cookie dough in the refrigerator for 10 minutes before baking.
- Bake until very lightly browned on the edges, 7-9 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. If desired, drizzle with melted chocolate.
- Cookies stay fresh in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.

Steps:
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread a generous teaspoon of peanut butter onto half of the crackers and then top with the remaining crackers. Place on the prepared baking sheet and refrigerate until the peanut butter is firm, 20 to 30 minutes.
- Put the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on medium in 15-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until melted, 1 minute 15 seconds to 1 minute 30 seconds. (You can also melt the chocolate over a double boiler.) Use 2 forks to dip each sandwich cookie into the melted chocolate until completely coated. If the chocolate starts to stiffen, return it to the microwave and reheat slightly. After dipping in the chocolate, decorate the cookies with red or green sprinkles.
- Put the cookies back on the baking sheet. Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.

Steps:
- Sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and baking soda. Set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter, shortening, granulated sugar, and 1 cup light-brown sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing until fully combined between each addition. Add vanilla, and beat to combine. Gradually add dry ingredients, and mix on low speed until fully combined. Remove from mixer. Using a wooden spoon, stir in chocolate chips. Cover bowl with plastic wrap, and chill until firm, about 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheets with Silpats (nonstick French baking mats) or parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, using a rubber spatula, stir together peanut butter and remaining 1/4 cup light-brown sugar.
- Using a 1 1/4-inch scoop or heaping tablespoon, drop dough onto prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart. Make a thumbprint in the center of each cookie. Fill thumbprint with 1 teaspoon peanut-butter mixture. Top with a second scoop of dough, and carefully mold dough to cover "surprise."
- Bake until firm, about 12 minutes. Transfer sheets to wire racks to cool for 5 minutes, then transfer cookies to racks.
Tips:
- For best results, chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- If the dough is too sticky to work with, add a little more flour. Be careful not to add too much flour, or the cookies will be dry.
- Use a cookie press to make the cookies. This will help you create evenly shaped cookies with a consistent design.
- If you don't have a cookie press, you can roll the dough into balls and flatten them with a fork. This will give the cookies a rustic, homemade look.
- Be sure to preheat your oven before baking the cookies. This will help the cookies bake evenly.
- Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make the cookies dry and crumbly.
- Let the cookies cool completely before topping them with chocolate. This will help the chocolate set properly.
Conclusion:
Chocolate-Topped Peanut Butter Spritz are a delicious and festive cookie that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized with different colors and flavors of sprinkles. These cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them!
