List of Ingredients
The Best Rolled Sugar Cookies
Whenever you make these cookies for someone, be sure to
bring along several copies of the recipe! You will be asked
for it, I promise!!! Makes 5 dozen ( 30 servings).
1-1/2 cups butter
2 cups white sugar
4 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
5 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
Directions
1 Cream together butter or margarine and sugar. Add eggs
and vanilla. Mix well.
2 Add flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well. Cover
and chill dough for at least on hour (or over night).
3 Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C).
4 Roll out dough on floured surface 1/4 - 1/2 inch thick.
Cut with any cookie cutter. Bake 6-8 minutes on
ungreased pan. Cool completely. NOTE: I make icing with
confectioners' sugar and milk. I make it fairly thin as I "paint"
the icing on the cookies with a pastry brush. Thin enough
to spread easily but not so thin that it just makes your
cookies wet and runs off.
