I have used this very recipe for the last 10 years or so. Granted, the cookies are bland. They are meant to be decorated with sugars or frostings. Any sweeter and they would be too sweet to enjoy. Only four stars because they need the decoration, which can be very time consuming depending on the complexity of your designs. Overall, a great, easy recipe for quick holiday cookies!

It is dry and soft, like a piece of bread. The eagle brand milk gives no flavor to this bland cookie. I tried this recipe thinking it would be a great new recipe, and I was very disappointed.

They are fool proof! Very soft and taste good. I used Almond instead of vanilla! My family loved them!

These are the best cut out cookie ever. I had lost by Eagle Brand cookbook and happily found the recipe here. I love that these cookies are so soft, last awhile if they aren't eaten up before I barely get them decorated and the sweetness, or lack of, perfectly balance all that sugary frosting.

I loved making and eating these cookies. By not adding sugar to the dough and then using the confectioner sugar glaze it was just the right amount of sweetness for my family to enjoy.

The dough was easy to work with but the cookies were bland and tasteless. They needed sugar or something. 1st suggestion, don't use this recipe. 2nd suggestion, if you do, then roll them thin and use lots of icing.

My kids and I just got done making Santa's cookies. We wanted to try them to make sure they were good for him. We couldn't even finish one bite. I followed the recipe exactly and they were not good. I never leave bad reviews, but I didn't want anyone else to make bad cookies for Santa. Sorry!
