Best Sugar Cookies No Break Fail Safe And Foolproof Recipes
NO FAIL SUGAR COOKIES
I found this while buying a cookie cutter for DH's B-day. The claim is that these cookies won't spread during baking, so it is perfect for intricate cookie cutters. Make sure you preheat the oven for at least 30 minutes.

Steps:
- Cream butter and sugar.
- Add eggs and vanilla.
- Mix dry ingredients and add to butter mixture.
- Mix well.
- Chill for 1 to 2 hours or see HINT below.
- Roll to desired thickness and cut into desired shapes.
- Bake on an ungreased baking sheet at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes or until just beginning to turn brown around the edges.
- HINT: Rolling out dough without the mess-rather than wait for the dough to chill, take freshly made dough and place a glob between two sheets of parchment paper.
- Roll it out to the desired thickness then place the dough with paper on a cookie sheet and pop it in the refrigerator.
- Continue rolling dough between paper until you have used it all.
- By the time you finish preparing the dough, the first batch will be chilled and ready to cut.
- Reroll left over dough and repeat the process.
- An added bonus is that you aren't adding any more flour to the cookies by rolling them out the old fashioned way.

SUGAR COOKIES - NO BREAK, FAIL-SAFE AND FOOLPROOF
Are you tired of sugar cookie dough that will not roll out properly? Dough's too sticky? That won't cut-out properly? Are you tired of sugar cookies that are too fragile to decorate? If so, then this is the recipe for you. I have the world's worst luck with sugar cookies. 3 years in a row I had great intentions of making cutout sugar cookies for my Christmas baskets. Inevitably, I failed. One year, the dough was way too sticky. Another, the cookies just feel apart. Then I found this recipe. These cookies roll out and cut beautifully, they bake evenly, and they are sturdy enough to frost and decorate yet still taste heavenly. Even my 3yo could not mess these up! And yes, I checked this against all the other sugar cookie recipes on this site -- it's different. And delicious!

NEVER-FAIL CUTOUT COOKIES
I have tried numerous recipes for cutout cookies over the years-this one is foolproof. My daughter and my granddaughter love making these for holidays and social events. Most of all, we enjoy decorating them. You can try almond flavoring or another flavoring of choice. This recipe is easily doubled. -Irene Palm, Mansfield, Ohio
