No, this is not a secret family recipe. Maybe I should make it that way. These are that good. No secret ingredient but, there are a few tips that make them oh so delicious.
My Mom's Best Sugar Cookie Recipe Ever
1 cup butter (real butter please)
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp vanilla ( a little extra makes them extra good)
2 3/4 cup flour
Cream butter and sugar together (remember only real butter)
Beat in egg and vanilla
Add flour and baking powder (add flour one cup at a time)
Dough should be stiff but not dry
DO NOT CHILL DOUGH
Roll out 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick on floured surface
Bake on ungreased cookie sheet 6-7 minutes @ 400
DON'T LET COOKIES BROWN
Note: These cookies are for soft, thick sugar cookies. If you like them a little crisp, these are not the cookies for you.
If you are making a buttercream frosting, once again, only use real butter and add a little bit of milk. It makes the frosting very creamy.
Now don't worry about calories and dig in! They are so worth it.
