Mom’s Homemade Sugar Cookies

December 14, 2010 By Crumbs and Chaos

Spread the love
This classic sugar cookie recipe has been in my mom’s family for many years as her Grandma used to make them.   They are the perfect balance of soft and crumbly.   The recipe is simple and easy to follow.  Make extras of these cookies as store them in the freezer for a rainy day.   Our recommendation to store them by themselves because if you store them with another kind of cookie, they take on other flavors.  Enjoy this classic recipe with a cup of hot chocolate.
