Soft Sugar Cookies with Sour Cream
Traveling to a holiday party or cookie exchange, why not take along a plateful of these soft cutouts? "When these cookies are in the oven, the aroma brings my children running!" says Phyllis Kaiser of Ovid, New York. "They freeze well, so you can make them ahead, and you can cut them into any shape for different occasions."

Reviews
Not crazy about this recipe. I refrigerated overnight for easier rolling of the dough but needed to add more flour to surface to keep from sticking which than made the dough tough. It seemed like you could not have enough flour to keep sticking each time you rolled it out which at the end the cookie tasted floury and tough. I would not make again. The taste was bland even though the sour cream and nutmeg were in the recipe.
Nothing fantastic here.
