These cookies were absolutely wonderful! They stayed soft for a week and a 1/2 till the last cookie and they were an absolute hit with the family. The nutmeg definitely gives it the christmas touch and you can't eat just one! Thanks so much!

WOW! This is the perfect sugar cookie! I took others advice and omitted the nutmeg and added 1/4 tsp. almond extract. I couldn't wait to make them, so only chilled for 3 hours, then sprinkled wax paper with powdered sugar and added a little to the dough. Rolled out great and very easy to work with after that. Also baked for about 7-7 1/2 min. Used Really Good Frosting recipe from this site to top the cookies and they were de-lish!!! Thanks a million. This is my go to sugar cookie recipe from now on.

These sugar cookies were exactly what I was looking for. They're soft, moist, and delicious! I used the nutmeg in the first batch of cookies but chose not to use it in the second batch because I didn't care for the taste. My husband isn't a sugar cookie person but thought these were great. They were perfect for my son's 3rd birthday. They were a little dificult to use for the cookie bouquet but I made it work and it turned out great. This is now my go to sugar cookie recipe.

This is the first time I have ever written a review for a recipe, but this one was so good I was compelled to comment on it. This was excellent!!!! I changed it a little but I was extremely pleased with the outcome.I added lemon zest and lemon extract to the batter and I also frosted it with a simple lemon frosting. My family raved about this one!! Thank you so much. I loved it!

These DELIVER the SOFTEST cookies ever! My search has ended, these are stellar! They are exact duplicates of the frosted cookies found in the in-house bakery section on holidays at Jewel-Osco. I have tried other "soft sugar cookie" recipes.. and wound up with soft out of the oven, semi-soft by that night, and no longer soft at all the next day. I baked these on a Sunday, and they have stayed beautifully soft and moist in the refrigerator for 4 days running. I did however, only make 24 cookies out of this b/c I wanted them big. I also added an additional 1/4 cup sugar. Did not use a cutter, thus only refrigerated for an hour or so before I rolled them into ping pong size balls, and pressed to 1/4" with the bottom of a big mug. Was in a citrusy mode, so topped them with a half-batch of the Lemon Cream Cheese Frosting on the site. The one that uses zest. These cookies are fantastic, and very filling! RAVE reviews!

OK, so when I first made these and tasted them they were hard! I couldn't believe it, I was so disappointed because all the reviews raved about them being soft, I didn't know what I did wrong! But not having time to frost them that night, I stored them and frosted them the next evening (for the kids sake) I'm so glad I did because they were soft and tasted good with or with out the frosting!! Day three and they still are soft and almost gone! I still don't know what happened (I followed the recipe exactly) but they are now wonderful and will be the only ones I make in the future!! The only thing I plan on doing differently is not roll and cut them out, I'll just make balls and flatten so they are even thicker!

These really were soft! Excellent idea, to use sour cream for texture in a cookie! The dough was a bit difficult to work with however, it was really sticky and it stuck to the cookie cutters and my fingers. Overall though it was fun to make and had great reviews for the party i made them for.

I am not a big sugar cookie fan (baked these for hubby), but these are really good. I love the nutmeg flavor so much (which I usually hate) that I add a little extra, and I also added 1 tsp (could add more) of butter flavor extract, which really put it over the top. Make sure you do not overcook, and these will stay soft until they're gone.

This recipe is wonderful! I did not use any nutmeg as my young children aren't big on it, but it was still wonderful. It is now 5 days after making the cookies and they are still soft. I think the key to soft cookies (versus crunchy) is to take them out of the oven as the bottom edge begins to turn golden brown. I only baked them for 7 minutes and they were not underdone. Will use this again and again!

I made these cookies for a meeting, and everyone loved them! I was asked for the recipe! They were so soft, and they were really tasty. I had seen a few reviews say that they were bland, but I put extra vanilla extract in them, and they were absolutely delicious! You won't regret making these!

I didn't use cut outs with this dough, so I had no reason to refrigerate it. I made balls and rolled them in sugar, and baked them the maximum amount. The time was perfect, the texture and softness was perfect...but they just weren't sweet enough...they seemed more cakey than soft and chewy like sugar cookies should be I think. I will try this recipe again, but I think I will add and extra 1/2 C of sugar and see if that helps.

These cookies were so good and so easy to make. I love a soft sugar cookie, and I've never seen cookies disappear so quickly. I skipped the nutmeg just because I don't really like it. I did not have any trouble with rolling out the dough. In fact, I did refrigerate my dough for a few hours before and didn't even have to use flour to roll them out until the dough warmed up. They do get puffy like others said, so don't use a real detailed cookie cutter. I will definitely be using this recipe in the future!
