If you love unusual flavor combinations, try these sweet, drop-formed cookies, infused with cinnamon flavor and a pleasant, savory hint of cayenne pepper. These cookies are tinted red for a festive look, as vibrant as their flavor. For a richer color, use gel food coloring. The cookies are piped onto a baking sheet, decorated with silver dragees that will sparkle against the scarlet surface, and baked. A perfect treat for Christmas, New Year, or Chinese New Year.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, cayenne pepper, and salt.
- In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar with a mixer on medium-high speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in the egg, cinnamon extract, and food coloring until smooth. Reduce the mixer speed to low; fold in the flour mixture and knead the dough.
- Fill a cookie press with dough according to the manufacturer's instructions. Place cookies 2.5 cm apart on two clean baking sheets. Lightly press silver candies into each cookie.
- Bake, rotating the baking sheets halfway through, until the cookies are firm to the touch, 25-30 minutes. Immediately lift the cookies with a thin spatula and transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with the remaining dough.
