This sugar cookie recipe is fantastic! We have enjoyed it for years. It is super simple and easy to make. I have always enjoyed baking these with my children. I had to giggle when Bekah and I were rolling these cookies out and later icing them with pink frosting and adding sprinkles to them. My husband, Dave, kept asking when they would be ready so he could be our official ‘taste tester’. What is it with men and pretty, iced sugar cookies?!
