Easy Sugar Cookies
These Sugar Cookies are so easy to make and decorate for every special occasion.
Servings: 24 cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened plus more for buttering glass
- 1 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanillla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 4 cups, plus 2 tablespoons flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 4 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 4 tablespoons colored sanding sugar or unicorn glitter sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, oil, granulated sugar, powdered sugar, vanilla and eggs.
- Add the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar and salt and mix well. Cover and refrigerate the dough for at least 1hour.
- Using a cookie scoop, drop balls of dough onto ungreased, unlined baking sheets. Smear a dab of butter all over the bottom of a glass, then dip the glass in granulated sugar. Use glass to flatten each ball of dough, dipping again into sugar each time.
- Sprinkle about 1/2 teaspoon of the colored sanding sugar, or unicorn glitter, on each cookie.
- Bake until the cookies are just barely turning brown, 9-11 minutes. Be careful not to overbrown. Allow to cool. These are ultra crumbly - so good!
