My Favorite Sugar Cookie Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 cup butter, softened
• 1 and 1/2 cups sugar
• 1 egg
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 4 cups of flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

Philly frosting:

• 1 small pkg. cream cheese
• 2 cups powdered sugar
• 1 stick butter
• 1 Tablespoon vanilla

For the cookie: Cream butter, sugar and egg. Beat in sour cream and vanilla. Add flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and nutmeg. Roll out 1/2 inch thick on floured surface; cut into desired shapes. Bake at 375 degrees on greased cookie sheet for 8-10 minutes (cookies stay white while baking. Brown edges are too done!) Cool before frosting.

Frosting: Mix all ingredients well and frost your cookies!

Makes about 2 dozen, depending on how large the shapes are.
