THE BEST ROLLED SUGAR COOKIES



The Best Rolled Sugar Cookies image

Whenever you make these cookies for someone, be sure to bring along several copies of the recipe! You will be asked for it, I promise! NOTE: I make icing with confectioners' sugar and milk. I make it fairly thin, as I 'paint' the icing on the cookies with a pastry brush. Thin enough to spread easily but not so thin that it just makes your cookies wet and runs off.

SUGAR COOKIES



Sugar Cookies image

This sugar cookie dates back to a Swedish woman born in 1877! Her daughter, Esther Davis, shared the recipe with me and she came up with all the exact measurements, since the original cookies were mixed by feel and taste. These are my favorite cookies and I hope they'll become yours as well. -Helen Wallis, Vancouver, Washington

KING DAVID'S COOKIES



King David's Cookies image

A buttery, rich cookie that's fit for a king! We love the oats in this cookie. They add texture and make the cookie chewy. The combination of toffee bits and nuts is fantastic. White chocolate chips add a pop of sweetness to the cookie. While you don't want to make cookies every day, this is such an easy cookie recipe you can whip up a batch if craving sweets.
