Cwalde’s Best Sugar Cookies

DESCRIPTION
This recipe is not my creation. Please drop the creator a note if you like them.These are my absolute favorite sugar cookies that I have ever made and they are also easy, too. They are soft and chewy with a wonderful flavor, not at all floury and pasty. I like to leave the dough in the frige overnight if I am going to roll and cut them out. Frosted or unfrosted, they are really very very good. Cheryl
