Tips:
- Use room temperature butter. This will help the cookies cream together smoothly and evenly.
- Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies at 375 degrees Fahrenheit. This will help them bake evenly and prevent them from over-browning.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
- Add your favorite mix-ins. Chocolate chips, nuts, and dried fruit are all great additions to soft sugar cookies.
