These are really good and easy,but just a little too sweet. Next time I will reduce the white sugar or try some brown sugar as well.

I was afraid to try to knead this dough so I just put it in the fridge to chill. I could only wait about 5 minutes because I was so anxious to bake some. OMG I ended up eating the whole pan of cookies, again! I really can't taste the nutmeg but the cookies are fantastic. As usual I baked them on parchment paper and they were perfect. Light brown on the bottom and oh so tasty. Love, love, love these.

I am a caterer and was comissioned to do a southern ladies tea. The main request was for teacakes which I have never made but tasted a few times. This was the first recipe I came across and tried it today, the cookies are crisp on the outside and soft and chewy inside with a perfect amount of nutmeg. Just lovely.

I normally don't make cut-out cookies, because I hadn't found a recipe for sugar cookies that I liked. For Valentine's day I wanted to do something different for my husband. I chose this recipe because of the added flavor of the nutmeg and iced the cookies with a buttercream icing. The cookies were a hit as soon as they were through--and they just got better!!

This recipe didn't taste like tea cakes to me, they tasted alot like flour. They also had an unpleasant texture, harder than most store bought cookies. No one would eat them after the first bite. I may have done something wrong but not sure what, I followed the recipe I cut from a roll instead of from cookie cutter.

These are wonderful! I used this recipe for Christmas cookies, & they were delicious. I really love the nutmeg. The dough is a little sticky, so be sure to refridgerate it & don't overcook.

These tasted absolutely fabulous! I wasn't able to use a very intricate cookie-cutter, due to the softness of the dough, but my teacakes were very impressive, on taste alone! I scaled the recipe to make 5 dozen, and used almond extract instead of vanilla. I passed them out to the other tennants of my 10-story office building as a halloween treat, and to introduce myself as their new neighbor. I'm positive I made a great first impression! BRAVO!
