Tess's buddy Jacob helped us make sugar cookies this week. Tess is quite the baker....???who knows where in the world she gets that from...maybe Grand or Granny. :-)
Okay friends...the search is over. I tell you OVER. I have the best ever sugar cookie recipe and i am going to share the wealth with you. Make 'em..taste 'em...eat up up! If you don't agree...then share your recipe with me. I want what the bakeries around town have...and i think this is close to it. Thoughts???
Sugar Cookies
3/4 Cup butter (the real stuff)
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1/2 t. vanilla (or lemon if you prefer)
2 1/2 cup flour
1 t. baking powder
1 t. salt
Mix butter, sugar, eggs, and flavoring thoroughly. Sift flour, baking powder, and salt together: add to mixture. Chill at least 1 hour ( I do longer). Roll dough on lightly floured board. Cut cookies with cutters and place on baking sheet. Bake for 6 to 8 minutes. YUMMY!
Icing
1lb powdered sugar
