BIG BATCH SUGAR COOKIES
A friend of mine's elderly aunt gave me this recipe. It dates bake from the 50's. These cookies are REALLY REALLY good. I like to roll them in lots of cinnamon and sugar before I bake them, but they are very good without this addition.

Steps:
- Cream butter and sugar, beat till light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time. Add vanilla Sift flour and soda, add slowly to creamed mixture. Chill 3-4 hours* Roll out, cut, Bake in preheated 375F oven for 6-8 minutes* decorate as desired after cookies are cooled Cooks notes: *after dough is chilled only remove a small amount for rolling and cutting at a time as dough will get sticky if not kept chilled. *the less time you bake the softer the cookie will be after cooling
Tips:
- Soften your butter to room temperature for easier creaming. If you're short on time, you can microwave it for a few seconds on low power.
- Cream your butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the dough, resulting in a more tender cookie.
- Don't overmix your dough. Overmixing will develop the gluten in the flour, resulting in a tough cookie.
- Chill your dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help to firm up the dough and prevent it from spreading too much in the oven.
- Bake your cookies at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to brown.
- Let your cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
