Soft Sugar Cookies with Sour Cream image

Traveling to a holiday party or cookie exchange, why not take along a plateful of these soft cutouts? "When these cookies are in the oven, the aroma brings my children running!" says Phyllis Kaiser of Ovid, New York. "They freeze well, so you can make them ahead, and you can cut them into any shape for different occasions."

I'm not a fan of sour cream, but these cookies were still really good. The sour cream added a nice tanginess that balanced out the sweetness of the sugar.
