The recipe reads
"Best Sugar Cookies in the World"
and the title holds truth!
I wanted to share it with you.
This recipe was tried in my kitchen for the first time,
approximately six years ago
and it now is my stand-by!
The batter is so light and fluffy.
This cookbook is from our former church
and great recipe is included.
and great recipe is included.
I must say the cookbook had two publications,
such a "big seller".
I drop mine in the little yellow bowl
containing the sugar and roll them around.
I don't make them "perfectly round & smooth".
I like the fact "mama's fingerprints" can be seen.
Do not let them turn brown,
I must say this is the secret to a soft sugar cookie.
The cookies will firm as they cool.

ReplyDeleteI have spent the last 20 min. drinking a cup of coffee and looking at your blog (I wish I had a sugar cookie to go with it) You have such great decorating ideas. My current favorite, the re-purposed bird bath. Excellent! I love that you can put different things in it! I'm not much of a baker, but these cookies look good to me! I've got to stop by more often!
ReplyDeleteThey look amazing! Thank you.
ReplyDeleteMaking these today! Have everything I need. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThe cookies sound good and look good. Great photos, as always, especially the last one!
ReplyDeleteIs this the Fairview church near Indianola, Ms.? I have to try these, they sound delicious.
ReplyDeleteMade these and they were a hit! Almost like like a shortbread taste. I agree on not letting them turn brown. I nearly "undercooked" them and those were our favorite of the batch!!
ReplyDeleteDo you mind if I post these on my blog, crediting/linking to you, of course?
