BEST EVER BUTTER SUGAR COOKIES
I can't believe this recipe wasn't already posted. I've made these for years as my standard cut-out sugar cookie recipe. They taste great, stay soft, and the dough is easy to work with, even in our dry climate! I think I got the recipe off of a Land o' Lakes butter package over 20 years ago. They're called 'best ever' for a reason.

Tips:

- Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help the cookies spread in the oven and give them a tender texture.
- Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
- Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies in a preheated oven. This will help them bake evenly.
- Let the cookies cool on a wire rack before serving. This will help them set and prevent them from breaking.
