I am a true baker at heart. I love a good excuse to make a bunch of goodies. Even though sugar cookies take a few hours, I love it. I had some help this time from my mom, and Livster :) In case you are in need of a super soft and tasty sugar cookie here's the recipe:
Sugar Cookies
2 sticks of softened butter
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
3/4 cup sour cream
1 tsp. vanilla
5 cups flour (add until not sticky - may be a whole cup)
1 tsp. baking soda
2 tsp. baking powder
Cream butter and sugar. Add eggs, sour cream and vanilla. Add dry ingredients. Roll out 1/4" thick. Use a cute heart-shaped cookie cutter. Bake at 350 degrees for 7-10 minutes depending on size of cookie. If they get golden brown they'll get crunchy.
Cream Cheese Frosting
8 oz. cream cheese
1/2 cup margarine
2 tsp. vanilla
3 cups powdered sugar
Red Food Coloring
Use a hand mixer until well combined. Don't mix too long or it'll get too thick.
