My middle son T.J. loves sugar cookies. I however never liked the time consuming process of making them. This is a make and drop sugar cookie that also happens to be the best tasting sugar cookie I have had. At the holidays I use colored sugar on top. The rest of the year just white sugar. This make a bunch and my son is always very happy. I also always double this or any recipe I make for my ginormous family of 5 grown men and little ole me.
