Delicate Sugar Cookies


Sugar Cookies Cooling on Wire Rack

When I worked at Atrium Catering, I worked with a lot of characters, many are still good friends today.  One gal that I worked with was Leeann.  She had THE best Sugar Cookie recipe and she was generous enough to share it with me.  Though I have lost touch with Leeann, whenever I make these cookies, I think of her and the fun times that were had back at the Atrium.  This is the very best sugar cookie recipe you will ever find.  Your quest for the perfect sugar cookie will end with this recipe....seriously.  They are delicate and melt in your mouth.
