Whenever I think holiday spirit, I think sugar cookies. In my opinion, there’s nothing better. The first bite explodes with rich, soft flavor. I personally love my sugar cookies with a cup of hot chocolate, a warm fire and a book. The fire may seem excessive, but it’s not, trust me.
I know there is a lot of debate about soft versus hard sugar cookies, but I’m partial towards soft cookies. They’re superior in every way. Here’s the recipe my mom uses:
