Easy Sugar Cookies




Reviews for: Easy Sugar Cookies

YUM…the easiest and the best-tasting sugar cookie recipe i’ve tried. I like the fact that you don’t have to refrigerate the dough for hours before actually baking. Because of that, you can’t cut them into shapes. But if you’re happy with just round cookies, then this is the recipe for you. ALSO, if you like soft cookies, make sure you take them out in 8 minutes, even though they won’t be a golden brown. Ten minutes and they turn crunchy after they’ve cooled. Make them tonight – they’re SO easy and most everyone should have the ingredients in their pantry.
I know this will sound melodramatic, but I’ve been looking for a good sugar cookie recipe my whole life. I had accepted the fact that I would never find it when I tried this recipe. The cookies baked up crispy and buttery, just the right amount of sweetness, chewy for days. Just writing this review makes me want to go to the kitchen and bake up another batch! I make cookies for other people every year, and wanted something different for myself, and thought that I’d just give it a try. I will use this recipe forever and pass it down to my kids… grandkids… you get the picture! 🙂
great cookies! soft and velvety dough, which is especially easy to work with if you chill it for an hour or two before shaping into balls. but be sure to place them apart because they spread a lot. the result is a delicious buttery cookie, crispy on the outside and chewy within. very yummy! i pressed a little chocolate heart into each cookie when they are still hot from the oven, very pretty too. don’t look any further for the perfect sugar cookie!

Quick and easy sugar cookies! They are really good, plain or with candies in them. My friend uses chocolate mints on top, and they’re great!
