Best Sugar Cookies Ever! Recipe #355609
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!
