Recipe Introduction
This is what I posted a while back on the old TSR boardsn These are a very popular sugar cookie.
These can be soft OR crisp. The key is to take them out AS SOON AS they
start to puff up. For me it is about 8
minutes. You should do one cookie sheet first to test your oven for
time. I have been making these for about 20 years and
always mailed them to my kids in college cut out in appropriate shapes
and decorated for major holidays - Valentine's Day
as well as Easter, Halloween and Christmas. I wrapped two cookies at a
time in Saran Wrap - backs touching each other
so you don't mess up the icing. I packed them in the box with PLASTIC
BAGS (from the grocery store!) on the bottom,
between layers and tucked in all the corners. Most of the time they
would make it without too many broken ones. In my
sons' cases, they really didn't care if they were broken or not (Cookie
Monster always said "Me LOVES Cookies!" and
broke them on the way to his mouth anyway!)
