Cracked Sugar Cookies image

This is a family favorite sugar cookie recipe handed down to me from my mom. When my husband was deployed to Iraq, he was always excited to receive a box of these in the mail. I always make sure to watch these closely and take them out of the oven before they brown. If they brown, they will end up too hard and crunchy.

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups white sugar
½ cup butter, softened
½ cup vegetable oil
3 egg yolks
2 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 pinch salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
