Sugar Cookies


The following recipe is my all time favorite Sugar Cookie!!!! My mother every Valentines and Halloween made them. We use to take them to our class parties!

2 Cups Butter or Margarine
2 Cups Sugar
4 Beaten Eggs
1 tsp. Vanilla
1 Cup sour cream
2 tsp. Baking Powder
1 tsp. Baking Soda
1 tsp. Salt
7 Cups Flour

Cream together butter and sugar, add in beaten eggs, vanilla and sour cream. Add in all dry ingredients except flour. Slowly add flour a cup at a time. Dough will be a little sticky. Put into fridge and let chill overnight or at least 4 hours.

Roll dough out onto floured counter and cut desired shapes. Bake at 375 for 8 minutes (if using a stone the first batch will be about 10 minutes)

Frost with cream cheese frosting and decorate.
