MY MOM'S CRISPY SUGAR COOKIES

These are the sugar cookies my mom used to make when I was little... I admit it's been decades since I've had them, but I found the recipe in her old tin box so I thought I'd share it. I don't think there's anything remarkably special in this recipe, but honestly they are the best sugar cookies I've had! I've tried numerous...

Steps:

  • 1. Beat the shortening and sugar together until very light and fluffy. Beat the eggs in one at a time, then add the milk and vanilla.
  • 2. Sift together the flour and baking powder. Turn your mixer on low and add the flour mixture a cup at a time to the shortening/sugar mixture, mixing only until just incorporated. Dough will be very stiff. Chill the dough several hours, or even overnight.
  • 3. There are two ways to finish these cookies. You can roll out portions of the dough (keep remaining dough chilled), use cookie cutters to cut out desired shapes, place on parchment lined baking sheets and bake at 325 until they just start to brown at the edges. Cool slightly, then remove to a rack to finish cooling. You can also just make balls out of the dough, then flatten them with a glass dipped in sugar. You will need to flatten them a LOT, they need to be pretty thin, maybe 1/4 inch. Sprinkle the cookies with regular or colored sugar before baking, if desired.

3/4 c shortening
2 c sugar
2 eggs
1/4 milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
4 c flour
3 tsp baking powder

SUGAR COOKIES (LIGHT & CRISP)

These Sugar Cookies are marvelous! Light, Crispy, Yummy and so easy. I got this recipe from a co-worker many years ago. Dieters beware--it is hard to eat just one. Tip-I have tried to substitute margarine in place of the butter, and the cookies were not as good. I have also used colored sugars for dipping the glass into for the holidays and that worked very well. Not recommended for rolled out cookies as the dough is too delicate.

I have had this recipe for about 40 years, and in that time I've made a few changes. These cookies are my husband's favorite, so I bake them for him almost every week.

  • In a large bowl using a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar together on high speed until completely smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes. Add the egg, vanilla, and almond extract (if using) and beat on high speed until combined, about 1 minute. Scrape down the sides and up the bottom of the bowl and beat again as needed to combine.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix on low until combined. Dough will be relatively soft. If the dough seems too soft and sticky for rolling, add 1 more Tablespoon of flour.
  • Divide the dough into 2 equal parts. Place each portion onto a piece of lightly floured parchment paper or a lightly floured silicone baking mat. With a lightly floured rolling pin, roll the dough out to about 1/4-inch thickness. Use more flour if the dough seems too sticky. The rolled-out dough can be any shape, as long as it is evenly 1/4-inch thick.
