Best Ever Sugar Cookies

~Katie Hall

Cream together--1 cup butter, 2 cups sugar, 2 eggs, 1 cup sour cream and 1 tsp. vanilla
Mix in another bowl--5 cups flour, 1/2 tsp. baking soda, 4 tsp. baking powder, and 1 tsp. salt
Add flour mixture slowly to creamed mixture.
Divide into 2 or 3 equal portions and place each in plastic wrap or waxed paper, and flatten into disc shapes.
Refrigerate for 1-2 hours (you can freeze the discs at this stage if you want to use them for later). Roll out to 1/4 inch thick (not too thin, just slightly thinner than you want them post-baked). Cut into shapes and bake for 10 mins @ 350 degrees. Remove immediately from cookie sheet and let cool. Frost when cooled.
Frosting/Icing: I don't have an exact recipe, but I use whipping cream, powdered sugar and vanilla. Just add enough whipping cream to get desired consistency. Then add any colors you want. Buttercream frosting tastes delicious too :)
