DOLLY PARTON'S SUGAR COOKIES
When I make sugar cookies, this is the only recipe I use. I'm convinced there is no better. The taste is out of this world, and the dough rolls and keeps its shape beautifully.

Steps:
- Cream sugar and butter together in a large bowl, beating until well incorporated.
- Add the egg yolks and lemon zest. Beat until well mixed.
- Sift the flour over the wet ingredients, and mix just until combined.
- Knead together very gently until it forms enough of a ball to plop onto a piece of plastic wrap. Work the dough just enough to get it to stick together, but be careful not to overdo it. Honestly, I get so paranoid about overworking the dough that I pile the crumbs onto the plastic wrap, fold it up around the mound, and press it together that way.
- Completely wrap the dough with the plastic wrap.
- Chill dough for three hours.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Roll out dough - I go as thin as 1/8 inch, but I prefer about 1/4 inch thick. Cut into shapes, adding additional flour as necessary to avoid sticking.
- Place cookie shapes on a cookie sheet (no need to grease) and bake for about 8 minutes, just until the cookies start to turn pinky beige around the edges.
- Let cool for a couple of minutes on the baking sheet, then move to wire rack to cool completely.
- Eat plain or decorate with sugar cookie icing.
