The Best Rolled Sugar Cookies image

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.

These cookies are not as good as I expected. They're a bit dry and crumbly.

I had a hard time getting the dough to the right consistency. It was too sticky and I had to add more flour.

These cookies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still good.

I added a little bit of cinnamon to the dough and it gave the cookies a nice warm flavor.
