Grandma's Sugar Cookies

Ingredients & Directions


1 1/3 c Butter/margarine
2 c Sugar
2 Eggs
8 oz Sour cream
2 ts Vanilla
6 c Flour
4 ts Baking powder
1 1/3 ts Baking soda (odd amount I
-know, I usually just put
-in 1 tsp a smidge heaped)

Cream together butter, sugar, eggs and sour cream, then add vanilla. Stir,
then sift in flour, baking powder and soda.

The dough will be really thick – it is better to refridgerate it a bit but
it can be used right away. Roll out a 1/4 inch thick trying not to add too
much extra flour – you will get dry cookies of too much flour is added. Use
your favorite cookie cutters and bake in a 375-400F oven for 8 – 10
minutes, just until you can touch the centers not leave a depression. YOU
DO NOT WANT THE EDGES TO BROWN!!! This will make these very dry! Cool and
frost. This make a bunch!!
