National Sugar Cookie Day

]]> Today is National Sugar Cookie Day. To celebrate I thought I’d share my favorite recipe for old fashioned sugar cookies. This wonderful recipe was given to me by a friend several years ago. I don’t know where the original recipe came from, but I do know, these cookies are melt in your mouth delicious.
