These were just okay. I made the recipe according to the specifications and didn't change any of the measurements. They were kind of bland and not very sweet. The texture was good. I added some pistachios and dried cherries and that was the only reason they were good.

I made these last night and they were delicious and easy! I did read the other reviews re: needing extra flavor, so I made them lemon cookies. Simply delicious!

These are the best sugar cookies I have ever made! I do alter the recipe though. I add 1 1/2 tsp of vanilla and lemon or orange zest (preferably lemon. I also only put them in the fridge for 30 minutes and do drop cookies. Sometimes I will roll the dough into a ball and press my thumb into them and put a dollop of preserves in the center. In the end I always coat with lots of powdered sugar (plain or with jelly and everyone goes nuts for these! In fact my son just licked the crumbs off the table (an act I do not condone but take as the highest of compliments!(

Seriously don't get it?!?!?!?! I made these and even added some vanilla and they were so bland that I ended up throwing the batter away after trying out a few cookies first.

I used this to make cookies for my sisters bridal shower. I really loved the recipe because I had a big and intricate mermaid cookie cuter I was using and the dough was very workable and baked perfectly. The first batch was a little bland for my taste so I added a teaspoon of vanilla extract and it really made the difference in taste for me. I really love this recipe and plan on using it anytime I have to use cookie cutters.

Outstanding! I'd been searching everywhere for a recipe to make cookie-cutter cookies for a party and this was the clear winner. Simple to make, tasty, and just the right texture. The dough was sturdy enough for even delicate cutter shapes (in this case, a crab!. The only modification I made was a teaspoon of lemon extract in with the egg and milk (I'm sure vanilla or almond extract would be good, too just to bring out the flavor. I will be saving this recipe to use many times in the future I'm sure.

I've made these three times with great results. They are like the cookies I remember at my grandma's many years ago. The last time I made them, I made a couple of flavor adjustments. First, I turned the cup of sugar into lemon sugar by micro-grating the zest of one lemon into it and then refining it in the food processor for one minute. Then, I added a teaspoon of vanilla to the tablespoon of milk. The result was perfect. By the way, because butter is a prominent ingredient in this recipe, it's important to reach to the top shelf for one of those expensive European-style cultured butters. The flavor difference is worth the extra dollar or so.

I made these on a whim yesterday for a family get together, and in no time at all, had super yummy and cute cookies. I made them with Alton's Royal Icing. They were so good I didn't have any left overs!
