Christmas Cookies Week 4 Sugar Cookies - Foodie Friday

This sugar cookie recipe is a holiday standard at my house. My mom has made them since we were little and we helped her make them since we could stand at the table and push a cookie cutter down. No shortage of memories has been made because of this sugar cookie recipe. It makes a great dough for cut out cookies as well as making great "just plopped" cookies. Icing is optional, but recommended in my opinion!

Ingredients:
2 c. sugar
2 eggs
1 c. cooking oil
1 c. sweet or sour milk* (see notation at bottom about milk and baking powder)
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. baking powder*
1 tsp. vanilla
pinch of salt
Flour enough to make stiff dough

*If you use sweet milk,  use 1 tsp. baking powder. If you use sour milk, use 1/2 tsp. baking powder.

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350.
Mix ingredients together and bake for 10-15 minutes.
