I've had great success with a couple of Amish bread recipes and I was really excited to try out this Amish sugar cookie recipe.
What You'll Need:
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
What You'll Do:
Beat together the butter, oil and sugars. Beat in the eggs until they're well blended. Beat in the vanilla.
Combine the flour, baking soda and cream of tartar in a separate bowl and then gradually add it to the creamed mixture.
Drop the dough by teaspoonfuls onto an ungreased baking sheet and bake at 375 for 8-10 minutes or until lightly browned.
Happy Baking, friends!!!

ReplyDeleteI get so many neat gift ideas for grand kids on your blog! I live in Amish country and there is a 'hole in the wall' bakery not too far away that has the BEST bread, rolls, and cinnamon rolls. There is also a donut in our area known as 'Amish Crack'. Yum!
ReplyDeleteYum.

I borrowed a Amish cookbook from the library over the summer and made a few recipes from it , they were delicious ! I don’t recall seeing a sugar cookie recipe in it so I’ll be trying this today!( especially since we woke up to snow thank goodness it’s already melting)
ReplyDeleteThank you for another yummy recipe!
Andrea- how do you like that cookie sheet?? where did you get it? I'm not loving my new ones since I "retired" my old trusty cookie sheets lol
ReplyDeleteI have a similar recipe, except you flatten the cookie with a glass dipped in sugar before baking. We like to sprinkle again with colored sugar for holidays!
