They go well with a steaming mug of coffee or a large glass of milk.
With a few pointers, you can make these simple homemade sugar cookies taste better than the store-bought kind.
Make a medium-sized bowl and mix the flour, baking soda, salt, and cream of tartar. Get out your hand mixer and whip the sugar and butter in a big basin.
Gradually add the eggs, mixing just until combined. Add vanilla extract and whisk in the flour mixture in thirds, blending just until combined. After scraping down the bowl, beat for another minute or less. Put the cover on and chill for at least one hour.
To make the balls, roll the dough into a 1 inch diameter.
Before placing on baking pans lined with parchment paper, roll each dough ball in sugar.
Use the palm of your hand to gently push the balls down until the mixture is about 1/2 inch thick. To get a little browning on the sides and a set in the middle, bake for 10 to 12 minutes.
