SUGAR COOKIES



Sugar Cookies image

This sugar cookie dates back to a Swedish woman born in 1877! Her daughter, Esther Davis, shared the recipe with me and she came up with all the exact measurements, since the original cookies were mixed by feel and taste. These are my favorite cookies and I hope they'll become yours as well. -Helen Wallis, Vancouver, Washington

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor and texture. This means using real butter, not margarine, and pure vanilla extract, not imitation.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This will help to prevent the dough from sticking to your hands and will make it easier to cut out the cookies.
  • Roll out the dough to a thickness of 1/4 inch. This will ensure that the cookies are evenly baked.
  • Bake the cookies at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to brown. This will help to prevent the cookies from becoming overbaked and dry.
  • Let the cookies cool on a wire rack before frosting them. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
