Envy my........... Valentine


Sugar Cookie

1 cup butter softened
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
1 cup sour cream
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
4 tsp. baking powder
6 cups flour
Cream butter, sugar, and eggs, then add sour cream and vanilla. Blend in soda, salt, baking powder and flour. Chill dough for 4 hours or overnight. Then, roll out on floured surface and cut with cookie cutters. Bake at 350 for 15 min.


Cream Cheese Frosting
1 box powdered sugar
8 oz. cream cheese softened
1 tsp. vanilla
little bit of milk
food coloring if desired
Mix until spreading consistency


We got this recipe from Becoming Betty. This is one of the best Sugar cookie recipes that i have tasted. Go check them out. They have some delicious meals as well!!

P.S. a little tip: when decorating sugar cookies i like to put my frosting into a zip lock bag and cut a tiny whole in the corner and squeeze it out that way!




Have a fabulous weekend!!

    Sour cream is a must! I don't even know my recipes exist with out it. Maybe for those people who like Rock Hard cookies ;)

    These are so cute! I need to be better at my decorating.

    Good tip on using the zip lock bags.

    I must admit, I am in total envy of your cookies. I have been wanting to bake up some Valentine's sugar cookies for a while. But have yet to find the right frosting. Would love to give your cream cheese frosting a try. Thanks for sharing!
