SUGAR COOKIES GALORE!

I LOVE my sugar cookie recipe. It truly is the best I've tasted. Wanted to share since it is the holiday's. I am home making 100's (it seems) for Young Women Nursing Home Christmas Sing-a-Song tonight. Hope you enjoy them as much as I do! Merry Christmas!!

Cookies: 1 1/2 c. Powdered Sugar, 1 c. Butter, 1 t. Vanilla, 1/2 t. Almond Extract, 1 Egg: MIx together then add: 2 1/2 c. Flour, 1 t. Baking Soda, and 1 t. Cream of Tartar. Cover and refrigerate 1-3 hrs. Heat oven 375 and roll out (make sure they aren't too thin, thicker cookies are the best!). Bake until edges are light brown (6-8 minutes)

Icing: 3c Powdered Sugar, 1/3 c. Butter (softened), 1 1/2 t. vanilla, and about 2 Milk. Mix sugar and butter. Stir in vanilla and milk. Beat until smooth. Add food coloring if desired.
