In reply to JoAnn. Hi JoAnn! These are soft, but you could make a sandwich cookie out of it? Are you trying to shape them? If so you'd be better off with my regular sugar cookies. :)

These were *so easy* to make! And, tastes great! I don’t usually love sugar cookies, but these were much enjoyed. I ran out of colored sugar half way through, so I coated the rest with cinnamon sugar. They were even better than the original! They tasted like an elevated snickerdoodle 🙂

In reply to Linda. I've done it this way and also with a mixture of sugar and cinnamon, like snickerdoodles. they taste great either way.

In reply to Mike. Hi Mike! The reduced flour could cause the cookies to spread a bit more.

I tried this recipe today, the cookies are delicious! so buttery and sweet! I use King Arthur flour and on their web site it says one cup of their AP flour weighs 120 g which would be 360 g for 3 cups which is what I used to make the sugar cookies.Your recipe says to use 375 g of flour, do you think 15 g of flour would make a difference? My cookies did spread out kind of thin as they cooled but I was expecting this with so much butter and granulated sugar. Next time I’ll try cooling the dough in the fridge for a few hours or even overnight.

In reply to Cassandra L Butcher. Hi Cassandra! I suppose they could be, but I haven't experimented with it to say exactly how to do it. :)

I was wondering if the cookies could not be rolled in sugar and just baked. then I want to top with icing. Is there a reason this would not work? I love your recipes!

Hi, can I log roll this recipe for freezing?

In reply to Shellie Pennington. Hi Shellie! They are pretty soft so I'd be a little bit worried about them holding up. I think a better bet would be to use the base from my lofthouse cookie recipe. :)

Absolutely delicious! One question… in your opinion, do you think these cookies would hold up and be appropriate to use as a mini fruit pizza cookie base? I’ve been asked to make mini fruit pizzas for a graduation party and would love to use a sugar cookie recipe from your collection!

this is the recipe that finally made Sugar Spun Run my default recipe source for everything. It’s so simple and the cookies are so amazingly good. If you are wondering if you should try it, you should, you won’t regret it.

I’m not a baker, at all, but wanted to try an easy cookie recipe with my 7 y/o daughter. I love this recipe’s simplicity and our cookies looked just like the ones in your pictures. My family loves them and these cookies will be our perennial favorite.

My family loves these cookies and asks for them over chocolate chip cookies which are usually the favorite.
