Sugar Cookies... to die for!

Here is the recipe for soft, moist, sugar cookies. Enjoy!

2 C. Sugar
2 C. Butter
6 Eggs
1 1/2 T. Vanilla
2 T. Baking Powder
7 C. Flour
1 C. Sour Cream

Cream butter and sugar. Add eggs, vanilla, baking powder. Then flour. Fold in sour cream. You can chill the dough, but you don't have to! Sprinkle POWDERED SUGAR.. not flour, on your counter and roll out dough to be a good 1inch thickness. Cut and put on greased cookie sheets. (Use parchment paper, way easier!) Bake at 375 for 7-9 minutes. They wont turn brown, they will start to crack a tiny bit on top and that's how you will know they are done! Don't over cook or they will be dry dry dry....


These cookies are so soothing, they will put you to sleep.... 


For the Frosting:
I always use a cream cheese frosting, because I think it tastes the best, but also has a good consistency when frosting these cookies

1 package cream cheese
1/2 c. softened butter
4-5 C. powdered sugar
2 t. vanilla
dash salt
3-4 T Evaporated milk ( you can use regular; however, it will not be as fluffy, it will be more runny so don't add as much)

  1. Those look so yummy! I can't wait to try them.. even though.. it might be a year or so. I despise rolling things out! Those look like they might be worth it though!
