These are undoubtably the BEST sugar cookies I have ever had! They are crispy and perfectly sweet. You may decorate them with colored sugars for the holidays.
Ingredients:
1 cup powdered sugar
1 cup white sugar
1 cup butter, softened
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
5 cups flour
additional sugar, for pressing
Directions:
1. Cream together sugars, butter and salt until fluffy.
2. Add remaining ingredients.
3. Mix well.
4. Heat oven to 350 degrees.
5. Roll 1 Tablespoon dough into a ball.
6. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet.
7. Flatten with a sugared glass bottom (take a glass glass, butter the bottom and press into sugar, repeat the sugaring as often as needed.) Repeat until all cookies are done.
8. Bake for 12-14 minutes - do not brown.
