Melt in Your Mouth Sugar Cookies image

This is a terrific addition to a holiday cookie tray. You can make the cookies more festive by rolling in colored sugar before baking. NOTE: In response to a reviewer and picture, you must be sure to roll the cookies in sugar before baking otherwise they will not be sweet enough or look as nice.

I'm gluten-free, so I used a gluten-free flour blend. The cookies turned out perfectly! They were just as good as the regular version.

I'm a vegan, so I substituted plant-based butter and milk for the regular butter and milk. The cookies turned out great! They were just as delicious as the traditional version.

These cookies are a great way to use up leftover egg whites. I always have a few egg whites left over from making other recipes, and these cookies are the perfect way to use them up.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted almond extract for vanilla extract. The cookies were still delicious! I highly recommend this recipe to anyone with nut allergies.

I've been baking for years and these are some of the best sugar cookies I've ever made. The dough was easy to work with and the cookies held their shape perfectly. They were also perfectly crispy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside.
