Sour Cream Cutouts Recipe

  • 1 cup butter (no substitutes), softened
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 6 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • FROSTING:
  • 1/2 cup butter (no substitutes), softened
  • 4 cups confectioners' sugar
  • 3 tablespoons milk
  • Food coloring
  1. In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Combine dry ingredients; add to the creamed mixture alternately with sour cream (dough will be sticky). Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours or until easy to handle. On a floured surface, roll out dough to 1/4-in. thickness. Cut into desired shapes with cookie cutters dipped in flour. Place 1 in. apart on greased baking sheets. Bake at 375 degrees F for 8-12 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool for 1-2 minutes before removing to wire racks. For frosting, in a mixing bowl, beat the butter, confectioners' sugar and milk until smooth. Add food coloring if desired. Frost cookies.
