Grandma's Sour Cream Sugar Cookies

• portions: 36 servings
• temps actif: 30 minutes
• temps total: 40 minutes

Ingrédients

½ cup unsalted butter

2 cups granulated sugar (400g)

4 eggs

⅔ cup sour cream

2 teaspoons vanilla*

½ teaspoon baking soda

3 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

4 cups all purpose flour, fluffed and levelled (520g)

½ cup butter

2 ½ cups powdered icing sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla

2 tablespoons milk

food coloring (optional)

Instructions

In a large bowl with an electric mixer, beat butter and sugar on high until light and creamy.

Add eggs, sour cream and vanilla, and beat until smooth.

Add baking soda, baking powder, and salt and mix until combined. Add flour and beat on low until no white remains -- dough will be soft, almost like cake batter. This is how it should be.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and line baking sheets with parchment paper. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto baking sheets 2-3 inches apart and bake for 10-12 minutes, until edges are golden and centers are set. They do puff and spread quite a bit so don't make them too big!

Frosting

With an electric mixer, beat butter until smooth. Add sugar, vanilla and milk and beat until smooth, adding additional sugar or milk to reach desired consistency (you don't want it too thin!).

Color if desired and spread on cooled cookies.
