Sugar Cookies - A big hit for Valentine's Day.

My new favorite easy recipe:

Cream together
1 c. sugar
1 c. butter (two sticks softened)
add:
1 egg
2 tsp. vanilla
Sift together:
3 c. flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt

Add flour mixture slowly to creamed mixture until it forms a ball.
Roll out 1/8th inch thick in Confectioners sugar (instead of flour) and cut into shapes.
Bake at 350 for 7-9 minutes. Should be slightly brown around the edges. Cool and frost.
Yummmmmmmy. Crispy bottom yet delicate taste. I had several friends ask for this recipe after I gave them Valentine's Cookies this week. I frosted them with Cinnamon Oil flavored creamy butter frosting. My X and O's were so cute. I wish I had a pic to show you. Enjoy!
