VERSATILE SUGAR COOKIES



Versatile Sugar Cookies image

I received this recipe - called Sugar Cookies - in a cookbook from my mission president and his wife. It was in a family cookbook given to us as a wedding present. I call it Versatile because these make great drop cookies as well as rolled out sugar cookies. Serving sizes and yield are approximate. Who actually counts the cookies while baking? Especially if there are children present? lol Baking time does not include refrigeration time. Cooking time is also approximate for the whole batch.

This is an excellent base for absolutely any cookie flavour you can dream of! In this recipe, I've featured both choc chip and white choc+macademia nut. Can freeze cookie dough (wrapped up in glad wrap) and bake it for later.
