• 1 cup butter, softened (2 sticks)

• 1-1/2 cups white sugar

• 3 eggs

• 1 cup sour cream

• 2 teaspoons vanilla

• 3-1/2 cups all-purpose flour

• 2 teaspoons baking powder

• 1 teaspoon baking soda

  Cookies

•  1/3 cup butter, softened

• 2 cups powdered sugar (I measure then sift)

• 2-3 Tablespoons heavy whipping cream

• 1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla

• 1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Directions

• In a mixing bowl combine butter and sugar; beat until creamy

• Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each

• Add sour cream and vanilla; mix well

• Combine flour, baking powder and baking soda

• Gradually add flour mixture to the creamed mixture, beating on low

• Chill dough at least 2 hours or overnight

• Roll portions of dough onto heavily floured surface to about 1/4” thickness

• Cut with cookie cutters

• Place on lightly greased cookie sheet

• Bake at 350 degrees in preheated oven for 10-12 minutes

• Make sure the cookies are “set,” “puffed up” and slightly firm to touch when you remove them from the oven. Only the edges should be slightly golden.
