Tips:

  • Use room temperature butter: This will make it easier to cream together with the sugar and ensure that the cookies are light and fluffy.
  • Chill the dough before baking: This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Use a cookie scoop: This will ensure that the cookies are all the same size and shape, which will help them bake evenly.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are just starting to brown: This will prevent them from overbaking and becoming dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before frosting them: This will help the frosting set properly and prevent it from melting or running off the cookies.

Conclusion:

These sugar cookies are a classic for a reason—they're delicious, easy to make, and loved by people of all ages. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can have a batch of these tasty treats ready to enjoy.
