Both of my girls are now grown amd...

Categories     Cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 c granulated sugar
3/4 c butter, softened
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 c milk, 2%
5 1/2 c all purpose flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
2 tsp baking powder

Steps:

  • 1. In a large mixing bowl, cream softened butter with sugar, until well blended. Add eggs, one at a time until blended. Add vanilla and milk, mix well, and set aside.
  • 2. Combine flour,salt, soda, and baking powder together in a bowl. Add dry mixture a little at a time to cream mixture. Mix until all flour is mixed in, do not over mix.
  • 3. Refrigerate at least 2 hours. I make my dough up a day or two in advance, and put it in a large ziplock baggie. It will roll out better if it is very chilled.
  • 4. Using about half of the chilled cookie dough, roll out on well floured smooth flat surface, to about 1/8 inch thickness. Dont roll too thin. Using your favorite cookie cutters dipped in flour, cut out your shapes. Transfer to ungreased cookie sheet about an inch apart. Bake at 350 degrees for about 8 to 10 minutes, or when edges start getting lightly browned. Cool completely. These cookies are very soft and cake like, use care when storing them in adavance of decorating . They can be frozen or refrigerated in a sealed tight container up to a couple days in advance of decorating.
  • 5. I use a buttercream frosting that is made with Meringue Powder (found on the Wilton Website). That way your frosting with be soft and creamy but will get a crust on it, when set to dry awhile, so you can stack them easy without the frosting gettng all messed up. These are sooooo yummy..they melt in your mouth!!

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cookies turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These cookies were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

These cookies were easy to make and turned out great! I used a cookie scoop to portion the dough, which made it quick and easy. The cookies baked evenly and had a nice golden brown color. They're soft and chewy, with a slightly crispy exterior. I lov

I'm not usually a fan of sugar cookies, but these were surprisingly delicious! The dough was easy to work with, and the cookies baked up perfectly. They're soft and chewy, with a nice crispy edge. I loved the addition of the vanilla extract and almon
