This the 2nd year that I have made these cookies. They are just great. I double the recipe and roll them into balls, flatten them and sprinkle them with colored sugar. They are the best tea/christmas cookies. We love them!!!

These are really good butter cookies and the icing really compliments them. But I think there is a typo in the description. These make really good cookies cut-outs. The shapes stay the same and the cookies do not change size when baking so you can cram a whole bunch on the cookie sheet. But it does not hold a STAMP well. I will make these every Christmas!

I added some flaked coconut and vanilla essence, and a teeny bit more flour. The cookies came out excellent, and I ate 3 straight away.

This was the first time I made butter cookies with my kids. They were Great! Not to sweet and just the right amount of butter flavor. I let my kids cut out stars for the holidays and decorate them. Easy! I will make them again and again and again.

They have a pretty bland taste, but they are easy to spruce up and they came out perfct...even with a 2 yr old helping. Thanks for sharing!

I loved these cookies. They are not too sweet so they taste great with icing and marachino cherries on top.

This was my first time making butter cookies and wanted a fun Christmas Day activity to do with my boys. I doubled the recipe but followed the recipe exactly as is. To my dismay I didn't have access to a mixer so I attempted to make them entirely by hand. From creaming the butter to mixing in the flour it was definitely work. Following the baking time as listed yielded cookies slightly too doughy for my taste, so I up-ed the baking time to get the crunch/softness that I preferred. The flavor was tasty and subtle - perfect for icing. I will make again & again in the future... but definitely with a mixer.
