Another
cookie recipe from my Gram, she had the best recipes.This is the sugar cookie recipe I make when I
have to make cookies for some event.It
makes A LOT of cookies!!! I halved the original recipe and it makes 5-6 dozen
cookies.Everyone LOVES these cookies
(well everyone except me, there is no chocolate in sight so…but if you eat one
with a handful of chocolate chips J ) and if you ignore the rolling and
flattening they are easy to make.
Children are definitely helpful, they can roll and flatten the
cookies.I put both of mine (plus one’s
boyfriend) to work today and it was fun for all of us.
The colored sugar really adds a festive touch to the cookie plate.
Only a little
room left on the cookie plate!!!
