Very good sugar cookies. The first time I used this recipe my dough was still too sticky, even after an hour in the refridgerator. The second batch I used a little more flour, flattened the dough in a ziploc baggie and then rolled the baggie. The dough comes out of the fridge very firm but softens quickly. Great recipe!

These were so sticky and it took a lot to get this dough to work for me. Maybe just my luck.

These cookies were great. I had someone ask me if they were store bought. I will be making these again very soon.

These cookies were good, tasted like a typical sugar cookie, nothing spectacularly different about them. I could not cut them out with cookie cutters, even after being refrigerated for hours. The dough stayed too soft for cutters. I would recommend rolling the dough into a log shape, refrigerate, cut and roll in sprinkles. Not a good cut out cookie recipe if you are making shapes for your kids' school. I made these for a wedding; the dough was too soft, even after refrigeration. Could not use my wedding cookie cutters.

When followed exactly the recipe was a great success. My 10 year old daughter's first attempt at cookies and they were awesome!

I thought these were great for cut out cookies. They were crisp on the edges and soft in the center...with just the right sweetness. Really good cookie. I changed to 1c sugar and 1c butter but also ended up increasing the flour when rolling out...probably by 3/4c. We also had to refridgerate a day before baking which seemed to help.

These cookies turned out great! I had another sugar cookie recipe that always turned out too crunchy, these were nice and soft, and even softer the next day (stored in tupperware). The key is to pull them from the oven before they get brown on the edges. I cooked mine for 15 minutes and then transfered them to a cooling rack right away. I didn't have a problem with the dough being too sticky, but I was pretty generous with the flour when I rolled it out.

I have to say that this is one of the best sugar cookie recipes I have used! I don't know why some have not had them turn out but they were awesome, I made no changes only added a little cinnamon and almond extract! Big hit!

These are the best sugar cookies I've made in a long time. I used 1 cup all purpose flour and 1 cup wheat flour, and added 1/4 cup of sugar. My dough wasn't sticky, just needed a little flour on the working area.

Not sure how they taste in comparison the Mrs. Fields but I did what the other reviews suggested and used a cup of sugar. I also emptied the dough from the bowl onto some saran wrap and rolled it into a roll and tied the ends and put it in the freezer for an hour, but I think I would have been better off putting it in there for an hour and a half because the dough was not all the way firm. I then sliced it up and placed the dough onto the cookie sheet. Use larger slices than you think, too thin and they look like pancakes! Other than that, they taste delicious! the first couple of chews aren't too sweet, it's the after taste and the last couple of chews where the flavor comes out. These are cooked through, but soft, eliminating the half-cooked cookie addiction I used to have!

I can't review this fairly because I followed one reviewers advice and upped the sugar and butter. The cookies were way too buttery and spread all over the sheet. I definitely would not us 1 and 1/2 cups butter. WAAAAAY too much.

I followed the recipe to a "T" Not only did they not taste like Mrs. Field's cookies, they were so tacky (after being refrigerated for 2 hours.) I had to add a lot of flour to them just to get the dough to stop from sticking to itself after using cutters. I definitely do not recommend this recipe to anyone. Sry.

this recipe is fantastic. i made it three times, the third time trying the tips offered to increase the butter and sugar and received disastrous results. this recipe is best AS IS. i suggest sifting the flour as it produces a lighter, more even cookie.

I'm sorry to say that this recipe did not live up to my expectations. First of all, do NOT increase the butter. Not even a little. I think it has too much as it is. They came out flat as pancakes (maybe flatter) and taste like, well, butter. I even increased the sugar as suggested and that did not help. I've baked plenty of cookies and these were the worst ever. I'm sorry but I have to be honest.

easy to make. no need for shortening which is nice. i didn't want to use cutters, so i just put mine in cling wrap, made a tube, popped it in the freezer for 15 mins, cut slices, dipped in sprinkles and baked. they turned out perfect!

I was so surprised at the mixed reviews on this cookie! I don't think it's as good as Mrs. Fields (Although I haven't had a Mrs. Fields cookie in ages!) but it was still good. My 3yo son and I made this cookie but I forgot to read the suggested changes before I made it. Then I forgot to add in the 3rd quarter of the butter! (Cooking w/ds always distracts me.) However, the cookies still turned out great! They were a heavier cookie, chewy, soft, and not too sweet. (I am a sweet tooth but my dh and ds are not so this is a good recipe for our family.) I might add the full cup of sugar next time just so I can have the little extra sweetness. We're keeping this one!
