This is the cookie dough after being rolled out 8 times. Still so perfect! |
Ingredients
* 3/4 cup butter/margarine (works fine with either)
*8 oz cream cheese (softened)
*1/2 cup sour cream (can sub vanilla yogurt, too)
*3 cups sugar
*4 eggs
*1 Tb vanilla extract
*8 cups flour
*1 tsp baking soda
*1/2 tsp salt
*1 tsp baking powder
Step 1
(pre-heat oven to 350)
Cookies ready to go! |
Step 2
Add the eggs and vanilla and beat until combined.
Step 3
Using a wooden spoon, add the flour, baking soda, salt and baking powder. You may want to sift these all together before mixing- but if not, just make sure you combine them all thoroughly.
Step 4
Roll the dough out onto a floured surface with a lightly floured rolling pin to about 1/2 thickness.
Step 5
I'd say these are slightly too browned- pull your cookies out a little before they get this dark |
Step 6
Enjoy the heck out of these cookies. They are so soft and delicious.
Mothering Joy
It may not be much, but when I've spent all morning playing with my kiddoes and then put them down for nap-time, I like to use my mini break to straighten up my home. I love being able to sit down in a clean room with two sweet, sleeping babies just feet away from me. It makes me feel accomplished in a way that is better even than the sense of accomplishment I have gotten in the workplace.
Couldn't find my recipe, so, I used one on line, it has crumbled:( Do you have any ideas of what I could do to save the dough? I didn't find your site until now.
ReplyDeleteOne option is to press a 1/2" to 1" layer of the dough into a greased glass baking dish and have a sheet of sugar cookie 'bars'. Add a little frosting after you've baked them and they should be able to be salvaged (to some extent!). :)
DeleteHope this helps!
