This is Grandma Shumway's cookie recipe and according to Loni Harmon, they are the best sugar cookies EVER! :)
Sour Cream Sugar Cookies
1 cup shortening or butter
1 cup sour cream
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/4 cups white sugar
Beat until creamy and add:
1 tsp soda
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp nutmeg
4 cups flour
Mix together. Chill 1 hour. Roll out on a floured surface and cut with cookie cutters. Place on a greased cookie sheet. Sprinkle with granulated sugar (or frost after baking).
Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes.
Thanks for sharing Loni!
Enjoy!
For real these are incredible!! They bake perfectly, they are moist but flaky and they are easy to roll out and bake beautifully. Magic ingredients...the sour cream and the nutmeg.
