These Classic Sugar Cookies are perfect for decorating for the holidays or eating plain!

Hey Guys! It’s Rebecca from Living Better Together again! Sorry I missed you guys last month, I was hiking my way across Scotland and Ireland and devouring everything in sight in Portland, OR! But it’s back to the real world, at least for a couple of months, and I’m excited to be sharing a simple, yet super tasty cookie recipe.

These Classic Sugar Cookies are perfect for decorating for the holidays or eating plain!

Classic sugar cookies are some of my favorites, other than no bakes, they’re what we made the most when I was growing up! They we perfect for decorating during the holidays or scarfing down as soon as they were out of the oven! The only bad part about them is that you have to wait an hour or so for the dough to chill for easy cookie cutting… lame, I know! But these are so worth the wait! Made with minimal ingredients that you probably already have in your house they’re just the thing to curb that sweet craving!

    Do these cookies spread out much or do they hold their shape well?

    How long do you bake the sugar cookies for? It just says temperature at 350 degrees.

    Thanks!

    Would this recipe work if you formed a log and sliced instead of using cookie cutters

    I’m guessing these take about 10 minutes to bake? There’s no time listed, just temp.

    This recipe was way too dry and crumbly to work with. The taste of the dough is nice, but it is not something we will be using in the future. Very disappointing.
