Wanda's Cut Out Christmas Cookies image

My best friend Darrell's mother, Wanda makes these every Christmas. This is the best rolled sugar cookie I've ever tasted! They are so light and delicate, they practically melt in your mouth! I have no idea how many this recipe makes, I'm guessing 3 dozen. Prep time does not include 2 hour chill time.

I had a little trouble getting the cookies to hold their shape, but I think that was just because I didn't chill the dough long enough.

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

I'm not a huge fan of gingerbread, but I really enjoyed these cookies. They're not too spicy and have a nice, subtle flavor.

I found that the cookies spread a bit more than I expected, so I had to adjust the baking time accordingly.
