Best Sugar Cookies Ever!

Recipe #355609 | 25 min | 20 min prep | add private note

By: HurricaneChampagne
Feb 13, 2009

This recipe is from my grandma's recipe book. The cookies come out soft and are 100% AMAZING every time! On occasion, I like to swap out 1 tsp Vanilla extract with 1 tsp Almond extract and it adds a new dimension to the cookies. I like to melt chocolate chips and drizzle that onto the cutouts instead of icing...so good!

SERVES 24 , 24 -36 cookies (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 400°F.
  2. 2
    In a large mixing bowl, cream together sugar, butter and salt. In a separate bowl, mix flour, baking soda and baking powder, set aside.
  3. 3
    Add eggs, sour cream and vanilla to the butter mixture. Mix until well blended.
  4. 4
    Gradually add flour mixture to the butter mixture.
  5. 5
    Refrigerate dough until firm enough to work with
  6. 6
    Roll out dough to about ¼ inch thick and cut cookies
  7. 7
    Bake for 5-8 minutes, be sure to check on them after 5 minutes and keep an eye on them. It doesn't take long for these puppies to burn or get too crunchy!
