Sugar crispies, ska the best sugar cookie in all of Texas.

A few weeks ago, we put out the call for your favorite holiday recipes. I received a few for yummy treats that I can't wait to bake, whether it be sometime this year or for a future Christmas. This recipe is perfect for the holidays, but it's also great for absolutely any time.

My crafting group had a cookie party a few weeks before Christmas. Darla, one of our faithful members, wasn't able to attend, but she offered to bake these special sugar cookies for us to decorate at the party. A few of the crafters had the pleasure of munching on these cookies at other events and raved about how fantastic they were.

These cookies are delicious, and super-fun to decorate. Unlike the sugar cookies that usually come to my mind (fluffy, thick, maybe even a bit chewy), these are crisp and oh-so-thin. They're amazing.

Directions:

Cream 1/2 cup butter
1 cup sugar

Combine/cream
1 beaten egg
1tbsp milk
1tsp vanilla

Sift
2 cups flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking powder

Chill 1 day, roll and bake 5 min at 350 degrees


Glaze (optional):
1 stick butter
1 box powdered sugar
Milk and vanilla, make it thin.
