My in-laws have some specific recipes my hubby mentioned when we got married. His mother's sugar cookies and his grandma's peanut butter pie were somewhere at the top of his list. He likes these without frosting, I prefer them with frosting (as does our daughter). When Sandy makes these, everyone tends to take some home with them!

How To Make sugar cookies, sandy's

  • Step 1
    Mix and sift flour, salt, powder and nutmeg. Set aside. Combine oil and sugar in a bowl. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add vanilla and all sifted ingredients at once. Make into 3/4 inch balls. Dip into additional sugar. Place sugar side up 3" apart on lightly greased cookie sheets. Press flat with fork like you do for peanut butter cookies.
