Yummiest Sugar Cookies Ever!

Ingredients:

• 1 cup sugar
• 1 cup butter (two sticks)
• 1 cup confectioner’s sugar (powdered sugar)
• 1 cup vegetable oil
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (imitation works just fine too)
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
• 4 cups of flour

Directions:

1. Cream sugar, butter, powdered sugar and oil (this works best if the butter is soft, I take it out about an hour before I plan to start making the cookie dough)
2. Then cream in eggs (one at a time) and add vanilla
3. In a separate bowl: mix baking soda, cream of tartar and flour
4. Add dry ingredients to creamed ingredients less than 1 cup at a time
5. Chill dough in refrigerator at least 2 hours
6. Preheat oven to 350 (F)
7. Drop 1-2″ balls on cookie sheet(s) (I have a Wilton cookie press–makes this process so much easier–$10 at Target)
8. Add sprinkles (or wait to add frosting)
9. Bake at 350 (F) for 8-10 minutes (If making cookie cutter cookies, bake for 10min. If using cookie press, bake for 8 minutes.)
10. Let cool — add frosting (if you want)
11. ENJOY!!
