How to Make Tasty Sugar Cookies | Perfect Recipe

[@carriesalguero5857]

Found this recipe last year and is now my go-to sugar cookie recipe! Gearing up to make them again this year for my daughter's birthday. They were definitely a crowd pleaser!

[@deannacoburn3334]

I absolutely LOVE this recipe and use it often! I am trying it today with lemon extract instead of almond because of allergies since they are for a father daughter dance. I will definitely be dipping in white chocolate! Thank you!

[@cynthialindo1535]

Wow wooow wooooooow!!! just baked these and they've cooled and they are on point!!! What a great sugar cookie. I can see how the almond just makes them perfect. Looking for a sugar cookie recipe to make cream tarts and I found it!!! You're awesome Amy. *** I also want to say I truly appreciate you sharing your recipes - for bakers who also sell their products, that isn't in their best interest but it simply demonstrates how genuine and kind you are. Thanks for being such a decent person.

[@cynthialindo1535]

Oh and btw I did 6 cups flour and my last 1/2 cup (needed) I used almond flour. Fabulous!

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

I’m so glad you liked them so much! Thanks for the positive feedback!

[@MonicaHernandez-uh7dj]

Did u use granulated or confectioners sugar... which frosting did you use?

[@nvtaguchi]

I think I've used this recipe 3 times - I mean the only times I've made cookies 😅 like, ever! and each time they've come out perfect! Thank you!!

[@jenniferorkisz2055]

I love that you make thick cookies. I know you aren’t supposed to but I would love to eat that dough. I’ll bet others would too!

[@shvigerfried]

Hi Amy! How would you convert this recipe into a chocolate sugar cookie? Would you add a certain amount of cocoa or replace some of the flour with cocoa? Thanks!

[@redpages1307]

Thank you! A great friend of mine recently introduced me to decorating these. I am excited to try your recipe ❣️

[@leannporter-parsley1523]

Can’t wait to try these! I appreciate you having the recipe in the description. New subscriber!🙋🏻‍♀️

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

Thanks for being here!

[@ivy9874]

Merry Christmas from our house to yours! We just made this recipe for our Christmas cookies. I might have baked them a tad too long so they’re a bit more firm but still excited! They kept their shape and we decorated with royal icing and gel. Thank you so much! Just love your videos!

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

Hope you had a wonderful Christmas!

[@neelampareta3176]

I m going to love with these

[@MamalalaDIY]

I tried the recipe today and they’re so delicious!!!

[@carolkostelansky250]

Hi so glad I found your site! Will the buttercream icing harden to lay cookies on top of each other!

[@jaelonhaywood6488]

these are so adorable! saving this recipe for Easter!

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

Yes these would such a fun Easter treat!

[@danideew2679]

Oooohhhh 4th of July, just change the colors 🥰

[@thanyarodriguez3378]

I don’t usually like sugar cookies but these are delish and so soft! That slight hint of almond is sooo yum !

[@DeborahCoffman]

Made this for my baby shower and it’s so tasty!!

[@andweknow6969]

I love this!! I’m going to try this afternoon. Thank you for sharing! 💕

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

Let us know how it goes!!

[@maplusha]

BEST cookie recipe ever! LOVE LOVE LOVE it. My little one loved making them too.

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

I’m so glad you enjoyed this one!!

[@angiebye8862]

Can't wait to try these! Can you link your cookie cutters and melts please?

[@pratikbhatt2572]

Hi Amy would love to try these, can you suggest if an alternate to egg might be ok to use like flaxegg for eg.?

[@kathymyers3093]

Really nice 😊

[@teresab1105]

Just made these cookies. So Yummy!

[@idontknowari]

hi, i wanted to make a cookie letter cake for someone but they’re diabetic, will a sugar alternative affect how the cookie comes out? thank you!

[@despinagatzas7030]

Lovely recipe and tutorial. Thank you. 🤗 could you please tell me how long can u store them for?

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

Up to a week at room temp or in the fridge. A month in the freezer.

[@despinagatzas7030]

Thank you so much for your reply 🤗

[@juliannchristine]

Any suggestions on how to store the cookies you piped with buttercream? If you were to store them in a container like you did the chocolate, it would mess up the designs, right? Just thinking about how I can easily transport them! Haha! Love your tutorials! ❤️

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

I like to put them on a jelly roll pan and cover with plastic wrap.

[@dianarosales9352]

Is the cream cheese room temp or straight from the fridge?

[@pambyrd5567]

Looking forward to making these!!! Thanks! 💖💖💖

[@pambyrd5567]

I finally got around to making these! Turned out so good. I was afraid to put that much almond flavoring so I cut it back a little but now I wish I had put the whole amount. I see where it needed it and next time I’m doing it right! 😂 I knew I should’ve trusted you!!!🤣 Thanks for the recipe!💖

[@jenniferorkisz2055]

Can I refrigerate the dough overnight, then bring to room temp, freeze the cutouts for 20 minutes and bake?

[@spinhello]

Thanks so much for sharing! Can’t wait to make these! Quick question - can I sub the cream cheese in the recipe for more butter or use sour cream maybe? Thanks!

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

Yes more butter!

[@tulinkiazim9206]

Hi, I love that you share your recipes, thank you so much 😍 I was just wondering if the cream cheese is at room temperature?

[@rachelhibbs898]

Can’t wait to try these! Super cute!

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

Thank you Rachel!!

[@krisbolick357]

Made them yesterday. This is now my sugar cookie recipe but I cut the almond down to two teaspoons

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

That’s awesome! Good you can tweak it to your taste 😊

[@saycheesecakeclt6713]

I like the cookie cutter you are using. Where can I find it?

[@victoriag1099]

Would love to try these 😄🤩

[@MorganSteinagel]

This video is great! Thanks Amy!

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

Thanks!!

[@francinekamman851]

Hi....was wondering how long can this sugar cookie dough last in refrigerator?

[@oHEARTxBRAKExB1TCHo]

What if you don't like Almond Extract? Would you just put more vanilla in it?

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

Yep you can totally do that

[@juliehahn6453]

Amy, I’ve seen videos where you dip the cookies in a frosting (that you’ve put a few drops of food coloring on). What kind of frosting is that?

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

It’s chocolate!

[@raganyaponmanadiyil2207]

This recipe is perfect

[@katherinevasilakos1946]

Can you add sprinkles before you bake?

[@jillkraus3591]

Is this the sugar cookie recipe that you were making on IG? When u made the stars?

[@anitagroves2731]

❤😊 Looks good

[@demab8823]

Thank you for giving the recipe in the “show more”

[@cakebycaseylee3911]

These are so pretty, Amy!

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

Thank you so much!

[@talindakelley189]

How would package the buttercream frosted cookies to keep from smashing the frosting?

[@davinakanhai3862]

Hi what is the consistency of buttercream? I live in Trinidad and need my icing to hold strong 🇹🇹💜

[@soniaasencio8403]

What brand of chocolate wafers do you use? Love the recipe

[@jenobritsch1986]

Merkins

[@shelbygreen68]

Just wondering if you use the scraps?

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

Always!

[@alaynagravitt987]

Can you freeze remaining dough? And if so, should we thaw in the fridge then re freeze once we cut them out?

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

Yes! Thaw in fridge or at room temp. Then make sure to freeze for 20 minutes after cutting out and before baking

[@riley_lovelady]

Hi! I'm not a big fan of almond flavored cookies. If I omit the almond extract from the recipe then do I need to add more vanilla extract?

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

Maybe just a little. Should be just fine!

[@nirmeenilmu3011]

You are doing awesome! Hugs 🤗

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

Thank you!!

[@nelliestreats6809]

I can’t wait to make these this weekend !

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

Lmk how it goes!

[@eve.bakes2643]

How many minutes if I put it fridge or is it possible in fridge instead of freezer?

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

They should be frozen

[@francinekamman851]

Hi 👋 Do these cookies freeze well? ( unfrosted)

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

Yes they do! Wrap well and they will last up to a month

[@francinekamman851]

ThankYou so much!😊

[@jazminzambara2769]

I want to try this recipe sooo bad but there’s nothing I hate more than sweet cream cheese 😭 (I love cream cheese in savoury foods) is there any thing I can sub it for? Or can I cut it out? 😩

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

Watch the tutorial and I show you a fun, easy way to decorate with white chocolate and it is SO TASTY!

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

Or use a regular American buttercream

[@daianapeiman7990]

Hi Amy is this the same recipe that you use for the “number”cookie cakes ?

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

You can use this, yes

[@chrisilever8586]

@@NeuroticMomBakes hun how do I find the recipe? I can't find it

[@zoeboyd97]

My dough is crumbly and breaking when transporting to cookie sheet. What can I do to fix it?

[@claudiacubas6363]

Do you use powder sugar o normal sugar?

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

The recipe is written below in the description box but it’s granulated

[@amandadeanda6108]

Is this room temperature butter?

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

Yes

[@jnbnie]

They look amazing. I look forward to trying your recipe. Question: where did you get those flour containers? ❤️

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

A local furniture store called RC Willey years ago

[@saimahammad6379]

Does anyone know how many cookies this recipe makes?

[@anyacrafts2143]

Is your butter room temperature? And is your buttercream your basic buttercream recipe you also have listed? I’m so excited to make these for my son’s birthday!

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

Yes and yes! The butter can be room temp or slightly colder than room temp.

[@nelliestreats6809]

How long can the raw cookie dough last in the freezer ?

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

At least a month

[@nelliestreats6809]

@@NeuroticMomBakes thank you

[@chhayashah7477]

Hi Awesome cookies but can you tell me egg Substitute. Thank you dear.

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

I’m not sure exactly but I think you could google it. I’ve heard cornstarch and water works but not 100% sure

[@MonicaHernandez-uh7dj]

When you say sugar do you mean granulated or confectioners?

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

Granulated

[@floresfamily210]

Will the buttercream ever harden enough to stack frosted cookies? Maybe only if frozen?

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

Yes probably only when frozen

[@MissheavyB]

How many cookies should I get from the recipe?

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

It totally depends on the size of your cookie cutters. About 18-24

[@MissheavyB]

Ok great thanks much. I'm doing this for mothers day 😁 keep up the good work ❤

[@NeuroticMomBakes]

How nice! She’s going to love it.

[@kimberlymcbride8795]

Where is the written out recipe??

[@bsch8308]

Could you please tell me which is the actual measure for the flour, because I live in Europe and I don't have the round big spoon for the flour as you have. Thank you in advance.

Could these be made GF?
