Brown Sugar Sugar Cookies - luvnit - 02-19-2008

These are so good. My SIL eats the entire batch every time she makes them!

I really wanted to call them Sugar Brown's Brown Sugar Sugar Cookies I thought that sounded really great. But really they are just:

Hi PJ! I used light brown sugar. This is an old family recipe of my MIL's. She is known in the family as the 'Cookie Queen' because she makes wonderful cookies and she is a cookie perfectionist.

Sounds like she's one sharp cookie when it comes to cookies...

Nice looking recipe...will try it as soon as I can stand for more than 10 minutes without getting dizzy.

Laura, these sound so crispy and delicious. I've not made sugar cookies in years. Another Easter project! DD will love this. We have been trying to make at least one batch of cookies every holiday for the past couple years.

I was all set to ask if that recipe came from Sugar Brown until I had read the whole thread. I was gettin' all ready to whup up on her for holding out. These sound delish!
