HOLIDAY SUGAR COOKIES
I add a hint of lemon to these delightful sugar cookies. For make-ahead convenience, freeze the dough up to three months, then thaw in the fridge before baking and decorating them. -Katie Koziolek, Hartland, Minnesota

[email protected]I've tried this recipe a few times and I can never seem to get the cookies to bake evenly. They always end up overcooked on the edges and undercooked in the middle.
