Sugar Cookie Recipes
Easy to Make for the Holidays

You are here:
Old Recipe Book >> Holiday Recipes >> Sugar Cookie Recipes

I wasn't going to put sugar cookies on their own page, but I found so many recipes for them in my old recipe books, I had to make a page.

Of course sugar cookies are my favorite kind of cookies, and the easiest to make. Normally the recipe calls for you to "press flat with a sugar coated glass bottom.

So these are not the cookies that you roll out and cut. Find my favorite Holiday cookies on the Christmas Cookie page.

1 stick margarine (1/2 cup)
1 stick butter (1/2 cup)

2 tsp. vanilla
Pinch of salt
1 tsp. soda
1 tsp. cream of tartar

Place in refrigerator and chill thoroughly. Roll into small balls and place on a cookie sheet. Press each ball twice with the bottom of a glass that has been dipped in soft butter and then sugar. Redip glass in the sugar before each "press." Bake at 350 for 10 to 12 minutes.

Sugar Cookies - No Eggs

1 c butter, softened
1/2 c plus 1 1/2 tbsp sugar
1 3/4 c flour
1 tsp. vanilla
sugar for rolling


Cream butter and sugar. Add flour, a little at a time, then vanilla. Stir until blended.

Roll dough into small balls the size of a walnut, then roll the balls in sugar. Flatten with cookie stamp or bottom of a glass. Put onto ungreased cookie sheet. Bake until edges are lightly browned, 17 to 20 minutes. This dough needs no chilling, rolling or cutting. It is easily doubled. Preparation time: 15 minutes Baking time: 17 to 20 minutes per batch 1.

Drop from a tsp. on an ungreased cookie sheet, about 2 inches apart. Use the plam of your hand or spoon to press the cookie flat.

Bake for 10 minutes. After cookies are cooled use a sieve to sprinkle powdered sugar. Tip: you can also use pecans.
