Does anyone have a good sugar cookie recipe??????!

Ok, so you must not want the kind that you roll out, cut, and decorate after baking. You just want drop cookies. Here ya go!


Best in the World Sugar Cookies

3 cups all purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp nutmeg
20 TBLS unsalted butter softened but firm

Bake in middle rack of oven for 10 minutes.

I'm not sure if there's a sugar cookie you don't chill. I just roll it in wax paper and chill in the freezer for an hour, rather than the fridge for 2.
These cookies are tried and true...absloutely delish:

****Sugar Cookies****

3 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup sugar
1 egg, beaten
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
1 tablespoon milk
Powdered sugar, for rolling out dough

Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside. Place butter and sugar in large bowl of electric stand mixer and beat until light in color. Add egg and milk and beat to combine. Put mixer on low speed, gradually add flour, and beat until mixture pulls away from the side of the bowl. Divide the dough in half, wrap in waxed paper, and refrigerate for 2 hours.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Sprinkle surface where you will roll out dough with powdered sugar. Remove 1 wrapped pack of dough from refrigerator at a time, sprinkle rolling pin with powdered sugar, and roll out dough to 1/4-inch thick. Move the dough around and check underneath frequently to make sure it is not sticking. If dough has warmed during rolling, place cold cookie sheet on top for 10 minutes to chill. Cut into desired shape, place at least 1-inch apart on greased baking sheet, parchment, or silicone baking mat, and bake for 7 to 9 minutes or until cookies are just beginning to turn brown around the edges, rotating cookie sheet halfway through baking time. Let sit on baking sheet for 2 minutes after removal from oven and then move to complete cooling on wire rack. Serve as is or ice as desired. Store in airtight container for up to 1 week.

I looked a long time for a good sugar cookie recipe and really like this one. They are good with or without almond flavoring. If you dont want almond you can use just vanilla. They are also great with or without the glaze. Good Luck.

Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon almond extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
Additional sugar
GLAZE:
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1-1/2 teaspoons almond extract
2 to 3 teaspoons water
Green food coloring, optional
Sliced almonds, toasted
Directions:
In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in almond extract. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture. Roll into 1-in. balls.
Place 2 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Coat bottom of a glass with cooking spray; dip in sugar. Flatten cookies with prepared glass, dipping glass in sugar again as needed. Bake at 400° for 7-9 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Cool for 1 minute before removing to wire racks.
In a small bowl, whisk together the confectioners' sugar, almond extract and enough water to achieve glaze consistency. Tint with food coloring if desired; drizzle over cookies. Sprinkle with almonds.

1 cup butter flavored crisco or other shortening
2 eggs
1/4 tbs vanilla
1/4 cup corn syrup or regular pancake syrup
3 cups all purpose flour
3/4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt

cpmbine shortening, and sugar beat at medium speed until blended. Add eggs, syrup and vanilla, beat until fluffy
in another bowl combine dry ingredients
add together gradually using mixer, cover and put in frige for an hour

well I gotta tell ya......I bake a lot of cookies. And I kid you not, when it comes to sugar cookies, I actually like the Betty Crocker sugar cookie mix that comes in the packets the best. I only use those for sugar cookies. The secret is using real butter only!!!!!

I have tried many sugar cookie recipes and I am telling you, this is so good and a real timesaver. Just use the butter!
