Sugar Cookies

The first recipe on Rose & Jill's are moist and sweet.....SUGAR COOKIES! These sugar cookies are very easy, fun, and delicious to make. These cookies are great to make with family and friends. The thing I love about sugar cookies are you can be creative and decorate them any way you want. In this batch of cookies there were flowers, stars, hearts, BYU-Ys, circles, gingerbread men, and much more. We decorated the cookies with colored frosting, and sprinkles. You can never go wrong with sprinkles!

SOUR CREAM SUGAR COOKIES
1 cup butter                                                1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup sugar                                                 1/2 teaspoon salt
2 eggs                                                       1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon vanilla                                          1/2 cup sour cream
3 cups flour

Cream butter and sugar. Add eggs and vanilla and mix well. Add dry ingredients and mix. Add the 1/2 cup sour cream in thirds, beating after each. Chill 3-4 hours. Bake at 375 degrees for 8 minutes. Frost and decorate.

p.s. this recipe came from my aunt Stacy's friend Cari Savage

  1. The cookies were super good! I have already had 2 this morning before you (Jill) are even out of bed! So are Lexi and Melanie going to have jobs at the bakery, too, after their help with the cookies?

  2. I think I recognize that recipe. Do you give credit to the people who give you those recipes (I don't mean me, by the way) (:
