How to make sugar cookies?!
Answers: I want to make Christmas cookies with my girls for santa when he comes this year. I need a good and easy recepi for sugar cookies that you can roll out and cut and decorate! Thank you!
Here's a recipe for Christmas sugar cookies and also the frosting. It's easy to make. These are the thick type sugar cookies like at Wal-Mart or Food Lion - very good for decorating. If you want a thinner and crisper sugar cookie, this is not the right recipe though.
the easiest way would be to buy the betty crocker sugar cookie dough. it's kind of cheating but they turn out really good and r easy to decorate.
idkk...maybe buy them

my grandmother was a baker for 15 years and she has her own cook book. everyone loved her sugar cookies. her secret into making them so good is the powered sugar!

1 cup butter or margarine
2 eggs
1 tsp cream of tartar
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp soda
1 tsp vanilla

Mix and keep in refigerator overnight or let cool in frezzer for about one hour. When rolling out use, 1/2 cup powered sugar and 1 cup flour as a mixture to roll cookies in. Cut into shapes and bake at 350 for 8 minutes. Do not over-bake. Makes approximately 50 cut out cookies.
Sugar cookie icing:
