Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 3 tsp. vanilla
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 2 tsp. baking soda
  • 5 1/2 cups flour

Instructions

  1. In mixer, cream butter and sugar, and then add eggs and vanilla.
  2. Add sour cream.
  3. Combine salt, soda, and flour, and add to mixture.
  4. Roll out on floured surface to about 1/4 to 1/3 inch thick.
  5. Use a spatula to carefully slide under each cookie and place onto greased parchment-lined cookie sheets.
  6. Bake at 375° for 7-8 minutes. THEY WILL NOT LOOK DONE! But don’t give in to your temptation to cook “just a little bit longer” or you will get crunchy cookies instead of soft, pillow-like cookies.
  7. Wait about 5 minutes and then transfer carefully to a cooling rack. If you wait longer they will get soggy on the bottom and sometimes get stuck to the parchment paper.
  8. Once they are cooled they are ready for frosting.
