This family SUGAR COOKIE recipe is "to die for"! I have young kids and a busy household, so I just use the "plop with a spoon" method on the greased cookie sheet for wonderful fluffy, sweet rounds!
But, you can also separate the dough into 3 equal parts, wrap it in plastic wrap. Chill it for a few hours in the fridge and then roll it out on a floured surface and use cookie cutters. But anyhow....
Using a fork, mix.....
1 cup margarine (room temerature to easily mix with rest)
3 eggs
2 tsp. vanilla
1 cup sour milk (mix 1 tbsp. of vinegar w/ 1 cup of milk - stir it up and you have sour milk!)
a shake of salt
2 tsp. baking soda
4 tsp. baking powder
6 cups flour (added 1 cup at a time, mixing well after each cup)
Be sure to use a greased cookie sheet. I sometimes cheat and use the "non-stick" aluminum foil on my cookie sheets (easy to clean up). Bake at 350 degrees for 6 to 10 minutes. Watch your oven, rotating them between racks half-way through the baking time. It's a lot of work "watching them cook". But the end results are so very tasty!!!
