Soft cookie (as long as you don't leave them in too long). However, they don't spread out like I'm used to so if you make a ball, flatten it. Might be the lack of humidity where I'm at that creates this since I am at a higher elevation. Good taste!

Very easy and satisfying recipe. I pressed the balls before baking onto colored sugar and it made them very festive.

This is by far, the best sugar cookie recipe I have ever had!! I have looked to ends of the internet searching for a great sugar cookie recipe, and all have failed. They always came out too thin, crunchy, or just plain bland. Too many other recipes call for stuff I just didn't have on hand, like sour cream, cream cheese or cream of tarter. These came out amazing!! I have given this recipe out to 3 people within a matter of hours after baking them. I took another user's advice and used 2 eggs and 2 tsp of vanilla, GREAT advice. Also you don't have to roll these out, or refrigerate! Just drop by teaspoon onto cookie sheet and sprinkle with sugar. Who ever came up with this, is a cookie genius in my book!!!

This is the best sugar cookie recipe! I do not wait for my butter to soften i just put it in the microwave till it is soft not melted! these cookies are mistake proof not sure why people say they come out hard or fall apart! I'm getting ready to make these again right now because we love this recipe so much this time going to add almond extract because i can't find a good almond cookie recipe anywhere!. I'm sure this recipe with almond is awesome!

Great sugar cookie! I added twice the amount of vanilla as was recommended by the recipe, and took another review's advice and let the butter get very soft before starting. The dough was slightly firmer as most people pointed out, but if you roll the dough ball in just enough sugar to coat, then cook for 8 minutes as directed, they come out perfect. Cookies have just the right amount of softness (holds together, because of the sugar outside, but super soft inside). Will definitely make this cookie again!

This recipe is very good. Although i am not a big fan of things that are sweet, i love this recipe after i do a few minor adjustments: a little bit less sugar, 2tsp brown sugar, and 2large eggs. I love this recipe!

I followed someone else's recommendations and used melted butter and added another 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract. I also sprinkled extra sugar because it needed more sweetness. It's a great recipe for a base sugar cookie that you could easily add chocolate or nuts too.

SOOOOOOO DELISH! I haven't made a bad recipe from this site yet! WHOOOPS i wanted to make more and ran out of butter so I replaced with veg oil, and that was NOT a good idea, dough just crumbled.

well, I followed every single direction that it said and I dont know why but they did not turn out for me. I do NOT reccommend making these cookies they were a complete waste of my time and ingredients.

First off, I'm a VERY terrible baker!!! Everything I try to bake turns out nasty, even if I follow the directions to a "T"!! Trust me, I'm not exaggerating!! So, I thought I'd try AGAIN at some homemade cookies. I can't believe I didn't mess this one up! They are AWESOME!! Mine usually taste bitter or tinny, but these came out perfect!! LOVE EM!!!!

these were easy to make...to the lady who said you needed super soft butter...wrong...i used 2 (1/2 cup as per recipe) sticks of "hard fresh out of the refrigerator butter" and mixed it all up together by hand...everything came out great
