Kneaders is a bakery franchise in Utah and has by far the best sugar cookies anywhere. It's the lemon and nutmeg that put them over the top. The owner posted this recipe on a television blog and I am posting it and the icing for you. Hope you love them as much as I. Oh! And this makes a LOT. I just separate into fourths and freeze the others for later...works great!

How To Make kneaders sugar cookies

Step 1

Cream Together butter and sugar until fluffy

add eggs, then milk. Scrape the sides of the bowl often
Step 3

Stir in remaining ingredients. Dough will be soft and sticky
Step 4

Step 5

Knead in just enough flour to make dough workable. Dough will be very soft. It is best to knead with rolling motion so you have a smooth surface and you will not get cracks on the tops of your cookies
Step 6

Gently roll out to 3/8 inch thick
Step 7

Cut into desired shapes and place on baking sheet lined with parchment (I did without parchment, works fine)
