Sugar Cookie Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup butter or margarine, softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • In a large bowl, blend together the butter and sugar with a mixer. Add the eggs, vanilla, and 1 cup of flour and mix well.
    By hand, fold in the baking soda, baking powder and the remaining flour. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
    Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly grease a large baking sheet while oven is warming up. On a lightly floured board, roll out the dough until it is 1/8 inch thick. Cut out the cookies with a cookie cutter and place them on the baking sheet. If you don't have cookie cutters you can use a tin can with both ends removed. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until lightly browned. Remove from the oven and let cool thoroughly before decorating.
    Makes 2 to 3 dozen cookies
