Super Soft Sugar Cookies

Super Soft Sugar Cookies

1 cup butter or margarine (softened)
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
1 cup sour cream
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp baking soda
4 tsp baking powder
5 to 6 cups flour
1/2 tsp salt

Cream together butter and sugar. Add eggs and sour cream-- beat well with vanilla. Sift together dry ingredients and add to creamed mixture. Mix until combined.

(The dough gets really thick. Keep adding flour until you can make the dough into a ball that sticks to itself more than it sticks to the bowl or your floured hands.)

Roll on floured surface to 1/2 inch thickness. Cut with cookie cutter and place on buttered cookie sheet about 2 inches apart. Bake at 350° for 10-12 minutes or until lightly golden around the edges. Cookies should be large, soft and thick!
