Such a classic and simple traditional sugar cookie, but one of the best!
Baking for a family get-together so I'm using flour and sugar and WHAT A
DIFFERENCE. Oh I miss good old flour and sugar cookies. I'm so
used to baking with almond flour and natural sugars that I'd forgotten what
flour smells like. Yes... smells like. I'd forgotten what
normal, wheat flour based cookies smelled like. Ha ha.
These are... heavenly. I did have one yesterday (vanilla sugar cookies
are my favorite cookie ever). It was 15 carbs and 8 sugars but worth
every last one. After the cookies were cooled I packed them up and put
them in the deep freezer for next weekend. I really did only have
one!
