I am not a great baker, and don't have the time to bake, either. But My mom makes these incredible Spritz cookies. They are nothing like the ones you buy in a tin or at a bakery - these are moist and almondy and so good. She uses a recipe out of one of those cheapo cookbooks, too for them. But mine never come out as good as hers.

My grandmother made these incredible butter cookies. Actually, she was making sugar cookies, but in her upbringing at the time they tended to cut back on a lot of things, so in many baking recipes she cut back on the amount of sugar, so they ended up coming out as really good butter cookies.
