Tuesdays with Dorie: Grandma's All-Occasion Sugar Cookies {Catch-Up}


Every home baker needs a great sugar cookie recipe. I've tried my hand at a few different recipes and been decently happy. However, I tried Dorie's recipe for Grandma's All-Occasion Sugar Cookies and I think I'm pretty darn close to a perfect sugar cookie. There are a few other recipes I want to try that may come out more chewy but these can be as soft or as crispy as you want them, depending on how you long you bake them. I like to under-bake my sugar cookies.

If you're wondering why I'm posting patriotic stars in November, it's because I made these for the fourth of July and gave them to all my niece and nephews at our family BBQ.  You can find the recipe here and check out the TWD blogroll.

If I were you, I'd make a batch of pumpkin or leaf-shaped sugar cookies right about now!


Wondering what all this Tuesdays with Dorie stuff is? Read this post. This month the group is posting two recipes each Tuesday to make sure we finish the cookbook before the end of the year. I'm taking it a bit further and posting two posts per day to catch up on all my make-up baking adventures. I call it #HELLmonth. Wish me luck.

PS: My Project Domestication Facebook page is up. I'd be happy if you'd check it out and like it.

I love sugar cookies! It's hard finding the perfect sugar cookie, everyone makes them just a little different.
