I needed sugar cookies for my young women's lesson the other day and they were so yummy I thought I would share.
Cream Together:
1 c. shortening (I use real butter)
2 eggs
2 c. sugar
2 tsp. vanilla
Add:
1 c. thick sour cream
2 tsp. soda
6 1/2 cups flour
1/2 tsp. salt
Roll out dough and make sugar cookies. Bake at 425 degrees for 12 minutes.
Buttercream Frosting
1/2 cup butter, room temperature
1 and 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
2 Tbsp. milk
Beat butter at medium-high speed until creamy.
Add powder sugar and beat to combine. Add the vanilla and milk and beat until combined.
These make the softest most yummy sugar cookie ever!! I swear that it is the sour cream. You can also use this dough to make candy cane cookies at Christmas time. Just color half the dough red with food coloring.
