COPYCAT LOFTHOUSE SUGAR COOKIES


I made these sugar cookies earlier in the summer and decided to make them again today. They are so good and perfect for a Christmas Cookie tray because everyone loves a good sugar cookie. These may be my favorite ones ever! They stay soft and the cream cheese icing on top is just the right amount of sweetness.

It may seem a little soon to be posting Christmas Cookie Recipes but in the world of a food blogger it’s time now if not before. If you want to that something special to make when you look for something say Dec.1, it wouldn’t help if I didn’t start making cookies on Dec. 15. This recipe is my favorite recipe find this year, my friend Linda shared it with me back in the summer. It decorates up pretty good for Christmas too!
