This is definitely not a cookie for a cookie cutter. It is sticky and refrigerating the dough does not help. The pictures are misleading to say the least. Be forewarned.

LOVE these! I normally make changes to recipes just to add my own twist but these didn't need it. I refrigerated my dough overnight and then used a cookie cutter for half the dough. They came out perfect. The other half I followed the directions of rolling them into a ball and dipping in sugar. Both ways were great!

Turned out great! I added about 2 cups of extra flour to make the dough thick enough to make cutout cookies. They taste great, and are the perfect texture! Thanks for the recipe!

We tried these and "sugar cookies with buttercream frosting." These weren't as good. Not bad, but others were better. They spread more, too - so I doubt they'd be a good choice for cutouts. I just waxpapered them in a log & sliced.

Really yummy recipe! And I found a round about way to use this for cut outs. Its very sticky, so I took small portions from my mixing bowl and flattened them using my hands (a rolling pin would not work) on a sheet of wax paper. I then cut out however many I had space for, removed the excess dough from around the cutout cookies and then lifted the wax paper in one hand to flip the cookie over into my other. It worked like a charm and actually went faster then I thought it would. Also instead of shortening , I didn't have any, I just used what I did have which was 1/2 cup margarine and 1/4 cup of oil.

What disappointed me the most about this recipe, were the photos. One would assume that it is perfect for cut-out sugar cookies since the photos are all of cut-outs, but not the case. This recipe is way too sticky for cut-outs so please change the photos so someone else isn't mistaken like I was.

I was able to use this recipe to make my cut outs and was thrilled. I wish it was a little more sugary tasting. It is a good cookie and I would use the recipe again and perhaps follow some of the recommendations as far as dipping it into chocolate or drizzling some more sweetness on it! Thanks!

These do have a good flavor, but are not really soft. I prefer my sugar cookies soft. Also, I cut the recipe in half, so I was expecting approx. 50 cookies. I only got 30. I will not make these again and will go back to my other recipe. Sorry!
