This is a delicious Sugar Cookie that I have been making for years. If you roll them a little thick and don't over bake, they are the best and stay moist. Use whatever cookie cutter suits the occasion! Make sure to refrigerate the dough overnight. Ingredients:
4 cups all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg |
1 cup butter, softened |
1 1/2 cups white sugar |
1 egg |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1/2 cup sour cream |
Directions:
1. Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt & nutmeg.
2. In large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth.
3. Beat in the egg, vanilla & sour cream until well blended.
4. Stir in the sifted ingredients.
5. Wrap dough in plastic wrap & chill overnight.
6. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C)
7. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut into desired shaped with cookie cutters.
8. Place cookies 1 1/2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
9. Bake for 8-10 minutes in the preheated oven. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Frost with your favorite cookie icing.
