Time 50m

Yield 36 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup (2 sticks) butter
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup sour cream
4 cups flour, plus more for dusting
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) butter
4 cups confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • For the cookies: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together the granulated sugar and butter until fluffy and pale. Add the eggs and mix until incorporated, then add in the vanilla and finally add the sour cream, mixing until well blended.
  • Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. With the mixer set to low speed, add the dry ingredients to the butter and mix until well combined. Chill in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes.
  • Dust a clean surface with flour. Roll out the dough and cut into shapes with cookie cutters. Place each on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12 minutes. Cool the cookies completely.
  • For the frosting: In a stand mixer fitted with the whip attachment, whip the butter until soft and creamy. Add the confectioners' sugar, milk, vanilla and salt. Cream together until fluffy. Spread the frosting over the cookies, about 2 heaping tablespoons per 3-inch cookie.

Whenever you make these cookies for someone, be sure to bring along several copies of the recipe! You will be asked for it, I promise! NOTE: I make icing with confectioners' sugar and milk. I make it fairly thin, as I 'paint' the icing on the cookies with a pastry brush. Thin enough to spread easily but not so thin that it just makes your cookies wet and runs off.

  • Make sure your butter is cold. This will help the cookies hold their shape in the oven.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies keep their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
