Christmas Cream Cheese Sugar Cookies

This post is also available in / Esta entrada también está disponible en ESPAÑOL (SPANISH)

The Sugar cookies recipe is one of those classics that you don’t want to mess around with. At first I was a bit skeptical about trying these, thinking that they would come out a bit chewy, but no. They came out perfect, so good they impressed a very big fan of the classic sugar cookies: my dad. I made them last year for Jake, and since we didn’t have any cookie cutters, I made small balls, coated them with sugar and press them down with the bottom of a glass. That’s the way they came out covered perfectly with sugar.
