BEST STAMPED SUGAR COOKIES

Steps:

• 1. Cream butter and sugars well
• 2. Add remaining ingredients, except decorating sugar, and mix well.
• 3. Scoop small balls (or hand roll). Press with cookie stamp, or you can just use a glass with a fancy cut bottom dipped into the decorating sugar. I usually spray the stamp, or glass bottom for the first few cookies to get enough sugar to coat and create the design in the cookie.
