Sugar Cookies


This is the time of the year when I go crazy baking food and trying new recipes. So I will start posting different cookie recipes as well as food recipes. Hope you find them easy to make and you use your imagination so you can create new variations to this recipe. One reason I love this sugar cookie recipe is because you can do so much with it. Enjoy  : D

Ingredients:
  • 2 Cups of Butter
  • 2 Cups of Sugar
  • 3 Lg Eggs
  • 1 tbsp Vanilla Extract
  • 6 Cups of All Purpose Flour
  • 2 tsp Baking Powder
  • Sprinkles, raw sugar, icing, food coloring, preserve (raspberry, or any kind you like)
Directions:
  1. In a large bowl add butter and sugar. Mix sugar and butter well until they form a even paste.
  2. Add eggs and vanilla and baking powder. Mix well.
  3. Start adding flour 2 cups at at a time. Keep mixing the until you have added all flour and the dough becomes into a nice and soft ball. 
  4. At this point you can start rolling your dough and use your cookie cutters to make whatever shape you want. You can also use food coloring to create different things.
  5. Bake at 350 degrees for about 8 minutes. Keep an eye on the cookies because all ovens work differently and you don't want to burn them.
