Jamie's Soft Sugar Cookies



Ingredients
7 c flour
1 t salt
2 t baking soda
1 c butter (can use baking quality margarine)
1 T vanilla
1 c sour cream (can use light)
2 eggs
2 c sugar

Directions

Cream sugar, butter, eggs, vanilla and sour cream (will be quite runny). In a separate bowl mix flour, soda & salt. Add to the creamed mixture. Dough should be somewhat firm, but not too much since you will add flour as you roll them out.

Bake @ 400 for 5-10 mins until bottoms are *very* slightly browned. I usually double up my baking sheets to prevent the bottoms from browning too much, so they are like bakery cookies. Parchment paper is nice, but don't use those dark non-stick pans, they will brown them way too much.

Buttercream Frosting
1/2 c butter
1 T vanilla
powdered sugar (about 1 lb or so)
milk or whipping cream
