Sugar Cookies (Marcae R's recipe)
6 c flour
3/4 tsp salt
2 c salted butter (softened)
2 1/4 c sugar
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
3 large eggs
4 TBSP milk
preheat oven to 375
whisk together flour/salt and set aside
cream together butter and sugar
add eggs, milk, vanilla
add flour mixture slowly and beat on low until combined
Divde dough in half and form into two balls. Flatten into a disk and wrap tightly in plastic and refrigerate for 1 hour
On a floured (or p sugared) surface roll out dough to desired thickness (they will not puff up a ton so if you want them thick- as she made them- roll them out as thick as you want them to be). She used a big flower cookie cutter so they were delightfully giant.
Bake for 10-12 minutes- she usually takes them out early- like 8/9 minutes. Let them set on pan for a min or two if you do.
Cool and frost (delightful receipe to follow)
