I use this recipe for any and every holiday. They are THE BEST sugar cookie. My kids even love them without frosting or sprinkles!

I have said in the past that sugar cookies are just a palette for dumping on a lot of frosting and decorations. No these. These cookies are so incredibly yummy. I had a hard time letting anything go on them. Basically, I'm a cutout cookie dunce, so they were still difficult for me to handle, but I discovered that if I rolled them onto parchment, cut the shape, moved aside the excess dough and cut the parchment to move it, it worked great. Don't go by my experience in cutting these cookies out, like I said, I'm not at all skilled with this kind of thing. Still, this will be the dough we use from now on! Thanks Taylortwo. Love your recipes, wish you were around more...

These are awesome! I grew up on these cookies, and I don't even like regular sugar cookies. It has to be these or nothing. The only difference in the way I make these is that I add 1 teaspoon of nutmeg. I always make a double batch and frost them with Jiffy brand white frosting. They freeze wonderfully and taste even better after thawing out. My sisters and I have been known to eat them right out of the freezer too!
