Pretty Good!

The recipe was easy to follow and made good cookies. Only recommendation is to roll dough no thicker than 1/4 " and cook them 8 - 9 minutes per batch.

rolled sugar cookies

Adding 1/3 cup or more of sour cream will add moisture to the recipe. Try it next time, I think you will find a difference. Adding cinnamin also good. Instead of Vanilla Extract, you can add Almond instead.
