This sugar cookie recipe is too good not to share. I have made them for Christmas and now for Valentine’s Day and they’ve been a huge hit! They are perfect to make for any holiday, but really you don’t need it to be a holiday to have a reason to bake cookies!
Ingredients:
Cookies–
2 cups of softened butter (not melted)
6 eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 tsp almond extract
2 cups sugar
6 tsp baking powder
7 cups of flour
Frosting–
2 cups of cream cheese
5 1/2 cups powdered sugar
3 sticks of softened butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp almond extract
Instructions:
Cookies–
- Combine butter, eggs, vanilla extract, almond extract and sugar and mix well.
- Slowly add in baking powder and flour.
- Refrigerate dough for 1 hour. I cut the dough into 6 different parts and roll them out and wrap with saran wrap.
- Bake for 6-7 minutes at 375°.
Frosting-
- Mix all the ingredients well
- Divide into separate bowls to add food coloring
Below I have linked everything I used to make these cookies!
This is the BEST sugar cookie recipe, let me know if you try it out! This recipe makes a ton of cookies (like a lot), so if you don’t want a ton I would half the recipe.
