The Best Sugar Cookies Ever!

 There is nothing like a great sugar cookie. My son and I always bake them on Christmas Eve, but they are delicious any time of year. Buttery, sugary and soft or crispy, they are the swiss army knife of cookies:-)

This is a fail proof sugar cookie recipe and absolutely scrumptious!

Ingredients

2 3/4 cups all purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1 cup butter softened

1 1/2 cups white sugar

1 egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a small bowl combine the flour, baking soda and baking powder and set aside.

In a medium to large bowl, cream butter and sugar until well combined and smooth. Add the egg and vanilla and gradually beat in dry ingredients. Use a teaspoon to scoop out dough and roll into small balls. Flatten with your fingertips or the bottom of a glass.

Bake 8-10 minutes and let set on cookie sheet for a couple of minutes

Bon Appetit!
