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.
