Ingredients
- 2 # brown sugar
- 1 # butter
- 1/2 tsp soda
- 3 eggs
- 4 cups flour, plus more when rolling - see tips below
- lil' vanilla
Instructions
Mix all ingredients well then refrigerate until firm or overnight. Break off more than a handful of dough and work more flour into it. The dough needs to stiffen up quite a bit. Roll out about 1/4in thick and cut with cookie cutters into desired shapes. Beat 2 more eggs and brush on top of cookies. Sprinkle cinnamon or colored sugar. Bake on wax paper on cookie sheets at 375 degrees; check at 11 minutes.
Tips
- cookies should easily come apart from scraps, keep shape while baking, and be able to be placed 1/2in apart in the oven; if not, you didn't add enough additional flour
- baking on wax paper is easier to clean up because of how sprinkles and toppings bake onto your cookie sheets
- make them a little thick so the baked cookies are soft
- unless you are feeding a small army, cutting this recipe in half should be plenty
