This basic cookie dough recipe can be used for yummy decorated Christmas cookies and is so easy to make.

Recipe Ingredients

1 c. (2 sticks) butter, softened
3/4 c. granulated sugar
3/4 c. brown sugar - lightly packed
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
2 1/2 c. all-purpose flour


Directions

Put the butter, both sugars, salt and the baking soda in a large mixing bowl and beat with a mixer for about 3 minutes. Blend in the eggs and vanilla extract. Reduce the mixer speed and add the flour gradually.

This cookie dough is best used when chilled, so try to mix it up ahead of time to allow for a couple hours in the refrigerator. Roll out the dough and use your favorite cookie cutters.

Bake at 375° for 10 to 12 minutes on an un-greased cookie sheet.
