Soft Sour Cream Sugar Cookies - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 cups sugar
1 cup butter, rounded
1 cup sour cream
2 eggs, beaten
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon nutmeg
4 -5 cups flour

Preparation

Cream the butter and the sugar together.
Add the sour cream.
Add the eggs and vanilla.
In a separate bowl, mix the flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and nutmeg together. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture, mixing gently until you have a soft dough.
Chill for about 1 hour.
Roll out on a lightly floured board. These cookies rise a lot, so keep that in mind when rolling out the dough.
Cut out shapes and place on an ungreased cookie sheet. Preheat the oven to 350°F Bake for 9-10 minutes. The cookies should not brown and will firm up after cooling.
Decorate with your favorite frosting, glace, or colored sugar.
