Sugar Cookies

8 1/2 Cups Flour

2 t. Baking powder

2 t. Soda

1 1/2 t. salt

1 1/2 t. nutmeg

 

Mix all dry ingredients together in a separate bowl.

 

Cream in mixer

2 cups butter

3 cups sugar

4 t. vanilla

4 eggs

 

Alternately mix in 1 1/2 cup sour cream with dry ingredients

(a little flour, a little sour cream until it is all mixed together)

 

Roll and cut out (I roll mine pretty thick)

 

Bake at 350 for 9-10 minutes.  They are just light brown around the edges when they are done.

{Syd's Notes} These freeze beautifully.  They are great "thick".  The little bit of nutmeg is definitely a secret ingredient! Best cookies you'll find.
