The reviewer gave this recipe 4 stars. This recipe averages a 4.04 star rating.

As others stated this recipe did spread more then I like for Spritz, but they were the perfect red for Valentines Day hearts and quite flavorful (cherry). We enjoyed them, especially the kids at my son's preschool. So they weren't so crispy I lowered the temp to 350 and the cooking time to 5 1/2 minutes on nonstick pans.

I am a cookie press rookie, but this recipe made me look like a pro! We made lime Christmas trees and raspberry pointsettias (with tons of sprinkles of course), and my preschool age kids love them! They package up nicely in little treat bags tied with curling ribbon.

I made lime trees and cherry stars for a cookie exchange and they turned out wonderfully. My first batch turned out dark like the picture so i reduced the temp to 350 and the baking time to 5 minutes. This made over 10 dozen cookies with my Wilton press! Will definitely get rave reviews--guaranteed!

These are awesome cookies, though i didn't get enough flavouring from the cherry jello. So i added in Almond extract instead of the vanilla. Received rave reviews at a cookie exchange, so am making 10 dozen more today for another cookie exchange! THANKS!!

These were yummy, but they didn't have as much fruity flavor as I thought they would. Maybe next time I will add a little bit of extract (such as almond or cherry) to enhance the flavor.

These were great! I used the lime and raspberry. I used my Christmas gun and made Christmas trees, wreaths and poinsiettas. These are a great, COLORFUL alternative to regular spritz!! THANKS for the recipe!

I made these with strawberry gelatin for Valentine's Day. They were ok to me and my son but one of his friends really, really loved them...thus the 4 stars.

I was looking for a good cookie recipe and remembered I had gelatin powder - this one worked out perfectly! I halfed everything in the recipe except the egg and the gelatin, used strawberry flavour and made 23 cookies. They were fast and easy to make (I didn't put them in the fridge because the texture was already fine for rolling), and when I brought them to a floor meeting in residence, they disappeared in minutes.

My cookie spritz machine is sorely underused and so as I was looking for a recipe, I came across this one and thought, "Strange, but interesting." I used cranberry/raspberry Jello and made little pink stars and this recipe makes a whole lot of cookies. When they cooled, I drizzled them with Sugar Cookie Glaze from this site that I made light green and they looked so cute. These were very popular in my Christmas tins that I handed out and my kids loved them!

This was one of my favorite cookies growing up! My mom made them for the school's cookie walk. She topped hers with a sprinkle of jello instead of sugar. It made them sparkly and added a little zing!

I love this recipe I have made it many times for different occasions.I like to press them out and use a cookie cutter.I also use icing to decorate them. My kids love them and ask me to make them for all their school parties.

I hate spritz cookies (boring) but loved these. I increased the jello as others suggested and made beautiful pink stars with frosting and red sprinkles. Festive and flavorful. Even my husband loved them.

I made 1/2 recipe with lemon jello. The taste was nice, but the dough was awful. It was too soft for my press and when I rolled it into balls, it just spread out flat. I won't use this recipe again, but I will use the idea of adding jello in place of some of the sugar in another receipe.

It was ok, I made it with orange jello and was very disappointed. I used a cookie press and the cookies held their shape but we didn't like the taste.

I made these cookies tonight with my 12 year old daughter Anissa, "WOW" really cool cookies, we did press cookies with my grandmothers press,. Just think of the possibilities, any flavor, any color, for any holiday. Dough was wonderful to work with. My daughter had fun. Super easy... Five Stars....

I took these to work and received so many compliments on them that I couldn't give them anything BUT 5 stars. I admit I halved the recipe and used an entire box of raspberry sugar-free jello, as well as added 1-2 T of milk to the dough, as it was very dry and crumbly. Because of its texture, I didn't use a cookie press, but mashed the cookies into balls and flattened them slightly before I baked them. They really didn't spread at all, so you can pack them in on the cookie sheets. Once they cooled I made an icing out of 1 1/4 c powdered sugar, 2 t corn syrup, 2 T milk and 1/4 t each of vanilla, almond and lemon extracts. The end results were really cute and were SO good. Thanks a bunch!
