Can I make Spiral Christmas Sugar Cookies without a stand mixer? 

Yes, you can use either a stand mixer or a hand mixer to make these. 

What should I do with the scraps?

We would never let a good sugar cookie go to waste. Simply ball them up, flattened them, and bake them. Every cookie ends up with a different and fun design and the kids love them.

Almond Extract:

This sugar cookie recipe has a mild flavoring. For a strong flavor, double the amount of almond extract. The extra 1/4 teaspoon of almond extract may seem like a small amount, but it provides a strong flavor. If you are allergic or do not like almond extract, you can simply leave it out or replace it with more vanilla extract.
