SUPER EASY SUGAR COOKIES

School is in session and everyone is looking for lunch box ideas. This is a great one since it is the easiest sugar cookie I have ever tried. It is quick to put together, using simple ingredients and it has a fantastic, buttery flavor and better yet... you don't have to roll out the dough! Three of our granddaughters visited this weekend and they helped make these cookies for our tea party; we wore (flower adorned) big straw garden hats, fancy formals and tons of necklaces).


1 cup butter
1 and 1/4 cup white sugar
3 egg yolks
2 and 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
extra sugar to roll cookie dough in
Preheat oven to 350 and lightly grease cookie sheet.
Cream butter and sugar, then beat in egg yolks and vanilla. Add flour baking soda and cream of tartar. Beat until well mixed.
Form into walnut size balls and roll in sugar. Place 2" apart on cookie sheet (do not flatten). Bake 10-11 minutes or until tops are cracked and just turning color.
NOTE: I did not grease my cookie sheets and I had no sticking problems.
NOTE: I baked my cookies 13 minutes.
