Host: A sugar cookie recipe is a must have during the holiday season. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. In a large mixture bowl beat together one cup of softened butter, one and a half cups of confectioner sugar, two teaspoons of vanilla extract, half a teaspoon of almond extract and an egg until well mixed. In a second medium bowl, whisk together three cups of all purpose flour, one teaspoon of backing soda and one teaspoon of cream of tartar, a quarter teaspoon of salt. Stir just to combine, divide the dough in half, cover and refrigerate for half an hour. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough to a quarter inch thickness. Dip cookie cutters into flour and cut the dough into desired shapes. Place them on lightly greased or a parchment paper lined baking sheets. Separate them by about an inch. Next, sprinkle the shapes with granulated or colored sugar then bake at 375 degrees for seven to eight minutes, until the edges are light brown. Remove the cookies from the baking sheets and cool on wire racks. This recipe makes about four to five dozen cookies. These sugar cookies are a great gift when they are all dressed up for the holidays.
