Rich and tender with a lovely vanilla flavor, these cute cutouts are sure to catch Santa's eye when you leave him a plateful! It wouldn't be Christmas without these expected treats. —Jane Grosvold, Holcombe, Wisconsin

Very good. Did some as cutout cookies and some as bar cookies. Easy, large batch.
Too sweet - almost sickening sweet... gave them to the birds and squirrels! I will stick to my recipe!!!
We make this recipe every year. If we make no other cookie, we make this one. I make the dough a day ahead of time and put it in the refrigerator, as it's a very wet dough. My husband and 9 year old roll out the dough and cut out shapes. I bake them, and we spend hours (I make several batches) decorating them. Our family and friends love them! And the best thing is, they stay moist and delicious for well over a week, so they can be made ahead of time.
I made these last Christmas. I loved the slightly flaky texture and buttery flavor. The dough was pretty easy to work with too.
makes a good cookie. a great idea to use leftover sour cream
Thanks, I couldn't view it either.
The dough rolls out and cuts well and bakes nicely. They hold their shape nicely. However, they have a very dry texture. Make sure you have a glass of milk handy when you eat these. Not sure I'll make these again. Not moist at all.......
Lost the recipe thanks so much these are the best and my kids go crazy for them, I freeze them till christmas but somehow they seem to disappear
I have tried for days to view this recipe. Is there any way you can type in the recipe? Thank you.
I'm wondering how this will work with high altitude cooking?
