World's Best Sugar Cookies

Just in time for Valentine's Day I thought I'd share my favorite recipe for sugar cookies. They are big and thick and taste pretty close to Lofthouse or Granny B's cookies. Jeff and I both think they taste even better a day or two after they are made. If you make them let me know what you think-honestly!

Sugar Cookies
1 C. butter
2 C. sugar
6 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
5 C. flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. baking soda

Cream butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Mix dry ingredients in a seperate bowl. Add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix well.

Bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes. Bake only until bottom of cookies are slightly brown. Makes 5-6 dozen.


Butter Cream Frosting
1/3 C. butter
4 C. powdered sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1-2 tsp. vanilla
1/4 C. milk
(food coloring optional)

Cream butter, add other ingredients except milk. Slowly add milk until frosting is the consistency you want.

Here is a picture of our cookies from last Easter; I simply put my frosting in a Ziploc bag, cut off the corner and went to town! At Christmas we kept it simple and frosted them solid colors.
