Sugar Cookies

I am not so found of sugar cookies, but these are fantastic. This recipe comes from my mother so where she got it, but it is great. They are soft and moist and amazing.

1 cup of butter, softened
2 cups of sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
2 tsp baking soda
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 cup sour cream
5 1/3 cup flour

Cream the butter and sugar. Add sour cream, eggs and vanilla, mix well until smooth. Add the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Mix well. Dough may be a little sticky, and you will be fine.

Lightly flour the counter. Place dough on floured surface, lightly flour the top of the dough. Roll out to desired thickness. I fill the the best is about 1/2 inch thick. Cut out into circles or desired shapes. Place on cookie sheet covered with a parchament paper.

Bake at 350 for 8 - 10 minutes, until edges are a light golden brown.

Let cool, and frost.
