These cutout sugar cookies have the best of both worlds, a cookie that holds its shape and yet still stays soft! This cookie is a family favorite. My kids love helping me cut out the shapes. Decorate with royal icing or frosting and sprinkles to make a unique look.
Helpful hint: If the dough has been chilled for more than an hour, it may be too hard for rolling, causing cracks in your dough. Let your cookie dough set at room temp for 15-30 minutes to allow the butter time to soften slightly. Yield 3 dozen 2-inch cookies Want a smaller batch? This recipe can easily be halved.
