Sugar Cookie Dream Come True

Hello... My name is Erin and I am addicted to sugar cookies or maybe just making the perfect sugar cookie. Cute, soft, sweet sugar cookies, with yummy icing.

I have been on the hunt for the perfect recipe for many years. I have a great family recipe for drop sugar cookies. They are oh-so yummy. We make them every year for Christmas. They are perfect with red and green sugar sprinkles.

But I have been searching for the best cut-out cookie recipe for as long as I have had kiddos to entertain. I have tried many different recipes with none of them coming close. Most are too crispy. Or too tough. Or they just don't have that perfect not too sweet taste. Or they are too hard to roll out and they don't keep their cute little shapes. The list goes on and on...

But, I think I might have found the answer to my sugar cookie prayers today. I found this great recipe on The Pioneer Woman Cooks! Imagine that... She is an amazing cook and all the recipes I have tried have been fabulous. Anyways, she made hers for Christmas. Cute little trees and Santas dancing across the screen.

Lucy needed cookies for Rodeo day at school tomorrow, so....

we made a whole herd of little horsies. They are so cute and taste so yummy! Even Chris, had an extra one after supper! I can't believe how great they are. They rank about a 8.5 out of 10... Pretty good in my book.

UH-OH! Looks like one of the little horses might have to be put down. His little leg is looking a little broken!

I am a little sad that my quest may be over. I guess I will have to move on to some other mission... maybe trying to find a cure for laundry!
