WORST sugar cookie EVER. They were horribly dry, had no flavor (and I added extra vanilla). I will NEVER use this recipe or recommend it to anyone. I made these for Easter Sunday and used up the last of the ingredients and I regret it. My kids have to pile on tons of frosting to enjoy them.

GREAT cookies! The dough is easy to work with, and the shape holds up great in the oven (doesn't spread at all)! They could use a little oomph in the flavor department, though, especially if you're just using a powdered sugar/milk icing. I like the advice given by another reviewer, LeBelleMelange... add the zest of one lemon and it makes these cookies complete winners!

As the Parchment Paper Queen, I never thought I'd say this, but don't use parchment paper! My first pan, using paper, spread all over the place, but stopped at the edges of the paper. Light bulb moment. Subsequent pans, without paper, came out lovely! Let them cool for just a minute, then move to a cooling rack. Oh, make sure dough is WELL chilled. I separated it into 4 disks wrapped in cellophane, chilled overnight, then chilled each pan as I was cutting out the next. If you want your shapes to hold their shape, all these things are crucial. I tried to cut corners, haha on me!!

Great!!! The dough was simple to make, Kid friendly too, the cookies came out lovely, soft and not too sweet, perfect once you add decorative icing, and what nots. They baked perfect, not too think, hold their shape even when with smaller cookie cutter. We only had one break because it dropped on the floor. This will be a staple recipe for my home.

I did not care for this recipe. Making it seemed fine tasted, the batter tasted great but it was a bit liquidly. after refrigerating, the batter hardened a bit but didn't taste as great. Still i couldn't roll out the dough at all, it stuck everywhere and was hard to remove. After baking, it did not taste soft moist and sweet like sugar cookies are supposed to. Instead it was dried and tasted more like bread than cookies. I will not be trying this recipe again.

I found this recipe to be incredibly bland. The cookies came out puffy, which made them less attractive.

By reading all of these reviews, this is a fantastic cookie!! My mom's friend's daughter(Me being 12, and her daughter turning 6 I do believe) is having a birthday coming up. At first, they wanted me to do a cheetah print cake, but that wasn't very successful when I tried to do it. Instead she wants me to do cheetah cookies. I thought of just doing a sugar cookie, but saw this recipe and wandered if there is a difference between a normal sugar cookie and a 'roll out cookie'. But, just to be safe I am going to try this and possibly use this. I'm very excited because from the recipe and reviews this is an amazing cookie!! I am going to put on top a cookie-icing and while it is wet, put on Sugar Sheet in the same shape that's cheetah printed. Super excited! Will definitely try this!!! :)
