Cracked Sugar Cookies image

This is an old recipe from Mrs. Johnson's recipes. She had quite a collection of good heirlooms. These are easy to make as you roll them into balls and they spread as they cook. The make a crisp crackly top that tastes great.

I've tried many cracked sugar cookie recipes, but this one is by far the best. The cookies are perfectly crispy and chewy. They're also very flavorful, with a hint of vanilla and almond.

These cookies are a bit time-consuming to make, but they're worth the effort. The dough is a little sticky, but it's easy to work with. I used a cookie scoop to drop the dough onto the baking sheet, which made it easy to get uniform-sized cookies.
