Sugar Cookie Hound

I'm really good at making chocolate chip cookies, and I do okay making peanut butter cookies, or chocolate softies, I can even make praulines, but the sugar cookie has been a burr under my saddle for quite sometime. For one thing, I don't particular care for sugar cookies, I'm all about chocolate or peanutt butter, or brown sugar and nuts. Sugar cookies are just too bland and boring for me. Also, making the dough from scratch is really hard . I've never been able to master it, the dough comes out too dry, or too wet, can't roll it out, I try to cut out shapes and they fall apart, what a mess! Then, my boy friend turned me on to those sugar cookie packages you buy in the baking section. All you do is add egg and some butter and you're good to go. Too dry, add a little water, it sticks, add a little flour. Voila, then he made different colored frostings and together we all added our frosting and sprinkles, and had a great time decorating cookies all afternoon. And you know what, they don't taste too bad when they're smothered in frosting and sprinkles. I've grown to like these, and they're a lot of fun. Yes, I'm still having a wonderful Christmas time!! I'm now for sugar cookies, not against.
