This was a difficult review to decide on. I would definitley give it a 5 for ease of working with the dough; it really had the best texture I've ever worked with for cutout cookies. As far as the flavor goes, I would give it a 3 or maybe even a two. I don't like my cookies to be too sweet, but these had very little flavor period. I bet the other reviewer had the right idea though, when they said it was the perfect cookie recipe to use with lots of icing. If you had a really rich icing, I think this would be the perfect cookie dough. And if I were to make cookies with kids, I would definitely use this recipe because of how easy the dough was to work with. Thanks for sharing this recipe.

The dough is quite difficult to work with.It doesn't stick so I put another egg,I also used baking powder instead of baking soda.It looks so white and I thought it wasn't baked yet so I wait for another ten minutes, but it's still white!So I grease them with rose jam and they are a bit brown. It taste like mini scones but it's still ok. I think I will put more butter and sugar next time!

Not a lot of flavor just a hint of sweetness, but perfect for lots of icing! I am an unexperienced cookie baker but this dough did not stick even at room temp. I put the dough between 2 sheets of wax paper before rolling - worked perfectly! Thanks Busia!

Amazing and fantastic!!! My 4 yr old and I just made these on a whim for no reason...they sounded good. Easy ingredients, easy easy easy and quick. We had no problem at all with cutting the shapes out or baking, ours were perfect at 7 minutes. Lovely and tasty!!! Will absolutely be making these again...We still have dough left over cuz they made so many!!! thanks

These were a good basic cookie. Dough pretty easy to work with. Wish I had baked a minute less though, I think they came out too crisp.

They weren't as sweet as I thought they would be but just about perfect with some frosting. I think the more you eat, the better they taste! This dough was great consistency and even my kids (three and six) were able to roll, cut and place the cookies on the tray without any problems.

Very easy to work with! I can't even tell you if they stay soft for long, because they were all gone by the second day.

This was a FANTASTIC recipe! The dough was so easy to work with and the cookies were just as described, not too sweet. Frosting is a must since they aren't that sweet but then you have your perfect cutout! These are better and softer the next day.

These are the BEST cutout cookies ever. The submitter of the recipe says it best. The wonderful thing about them is that they stay soft in the middle, very similer to the 'Cookie Bouquet' cookies. I highly recomend them!!
