Sugar Cookies!

I LOVE Sugar Cookies!

Here is an awesome recipe that makes about 4 dozen cookies!
Feel free to half the recipe to make less or freeze some of it! 

Here's what you'll need:

4 c. sugar

1 c. butter(or shortening)

3 eggs

2 c. milk

2 t. vanilla

8 c. flour

8 t. baking powder

1 t. salt

Step. 1. Cream the butter and sugar.

Then mix together: eggs, milk, and vanilla.

Step 2. In large bowl combine: flour, baking powder, and salt. 

Step 3. Gradually add dry ingredients. 

I usually mix in an extra 1-2 cups of flour to make sure the dough is thick enough.

This dough is awesome to freeze!

You can either roll the dough into logs using plastic wrap and tin foil. 

Or you can place in a bowl(like me) and put in your freezer!

Step 4. On a flour covered surface... 

roll your dough out!

Then use your favorite cookie cutters to make all kinds of different shapes!

Step 5. Place in a preheated 350* oven and bake for 8-10mins!

Once your cookies have cooled be sure to frost with your favorite frosting!

Merry Christmas!

Till Next Time,
