Easy to make dairy-free and gluten-free spritz cookies recipe that melts in your mouth on every bite, a perfect addition for your holiday cookie swap.
The sixth day of the holiday cookie baking week, I bake Tapioca Spritz Cookies because it is a pretty shape cookie. I grew up with Spritz Cookies when we have a big celebration. We will make lots and lots of cookie jars full of spritz cookies to give it away or to put it on the serving table for family and friends that always come visit us during the celebration.
The cookie we made was from wheat flour, it tastes good, but what I remembered the way we made it was using lots of butter and lots of work. Because we only use standard type oven than we put on top of the portable gas stove, we did not have the conventional or the toaster oven like today. But it was fun, and I was so excited to eat that freshly baked spritz cookie we made.
Then we tried to bake tapioca spritz cookie once. This one has quickly become my favorite cookies, the texture was soft and melt in the mouth.
How To Make Spritz Cookies
After I tried a few times with different portion and measurement of the ingredients, here I share the recipe for melt in the mouth Tapioca Spritz Cookies. It is only five ingredients and easy to make. If you don’t have a cookie presser, then you can use an icing bag with the star piping tip, and it still works just fine to make into classic spritz cookie shape.

- 3/4 cup icing sugar /powder sugar
- 2 egg yolks

Gluten-free Dairy-free Spritz Cookies
Because of these spritz cookies made of tapioca, so it is gluten-free for sure. What I like about this Tapioca Spritz Cookies:
- It is melt in the mouth as soon as you get the first bite.
- It is an excellent cookie for the gluten-free option.
- You can make lots of different shape from a flower, spiral, heart shape, swirl, or mini wreath if using the icing bag with piping tip or cookie presser, or roll it into a rectangle and use a cookie cutter.
- It is a pretty shape cookie so that it will be an excellent addition to a holiday cookie tray.
