You might think all sugar cookie recipes are the same, but I promise-- these are phenomenal! Honestly, they're so perfect you'll wonder what the secret ingredient is. I can brag about them because it's not my recipe, I got it from a phenomenal cook.
1 cup butter (soft)
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 cup sour cream
6 cups sifted flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon soda
Cream butter and sugar; add eggs, vanilla, and sour cream. Add in dry ingredients, about one cup at a time, and beat well. Refrigerate for about an hour and then roll out 1/3 inch thick on lightly floured surface. Cut with cookie cutters and place on ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 9 minutes. When cookies are cooled, decorate as desired.
Yield 6 dozen.
Frosting
6 tablespoons butter (soft)
1 (1 pound) package powdered sugar
1/2-1 cup whipping cream
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
food coloring
Cream butter; gradually add about half the sugar, blending well. Beat in 1/4 cup cream and vanilla. Gradually blend in remaining sugar. Add remaining cream to make desired spreading consistency.
