These are simply the Best Cut Out Sugar Cookies that I have ever tasted!
They are easy to make, not overly sweet and have a hint of salt for the perfect flavor balance. It really holds its shape. You can use cookie cutters to create any shape you want.
You can glaze them with a simple glaze recipe – only three ingredients.
The biggest things to remember for this recipe are 1. you need to soften the butter ahead and 2. the dough needs to rest in the fridge for ideally 2 hours.
