Buttery Sugar Cookies

![]() ![]() I make these buttery, crisp, roll-out cookies every Christmas. It's an old handeded down family recipe. Always chill the cookie dough for the amount of time specified in the recipe before rolling cookie dough. When rolling out cookie dough, use just enough flour to allow easy rolling and prevent it from sticking to the board and rolling pin. Too much flour makes cookies tough Preparation - *To decorate as shown above - If you have enough time or if you have cookie painting helpers (kids love to do this) "paint" these cookies before baking. To make the cookie paint - For each color, in a small custard cup or bowl, lightly beat an egg white with a fork. Stir in a few drops of food coloring. Use clean artist brushes to paint the unbaked cookies according to the cutters you use... paint red bows on green bells or wreaths... red berries on holly shaped cookies, outlined in green... bows on animal shaped cookies... faces, scarves, and buttons on snowmen, etc.
