I wish you guys would say Christmas instead of holiday, it feels so corporate when people just say holiday.
An exceptional recipe for small batch sugar cookie cutouts. I’ve been making these since the first airing of this video on PBS, and they are ALWAYS easy to roll out, cut, bake, and decorate! And…the best part…they are tender and delicious!
Aaaak — can't find my almond extract! Do these work without it? Would another extract be good?
Just saying, "hello!"
😒You are really overdoing it by saying beautiful and gorgeous over and over. 🤐
Christmas
Well, I added a T of almond milk and, since I am out of Almond extract, used peppermint extract. I didn't use a food processor, I used my stand mixer for all the wet. And I used my Magic Bullet to grind down the sugar! Worked perfectly. The idea of rolling between parchment paper is smart. It's chilling now. Thanks. Merry Christmas.
Too bad I don’t have a food processor.
Can I leave out the almond extract? (Allergy)
Hello there. You never fail to interest me. I remember my Saturday mornings and PBS. Also my sister use to receive a magazine that we made recipes from…. Thank you for encouraging me to grow
The sugar cookie recipe looks great!
They’re Christmas cookies to me
Great video!!! What food processor do you recommend???
Have to pay for recipe 🙁
In Australia we use castor sugar to cream with butter. USA doesn't have it, from mem. It is slightly more refined than regular sugar but not icing sugar/powder sugar.
They make you pay for a subscription, to get the actual recipe. Never watching your YouTube videos again.
Sorry you lost me at the cold butter in the food processor. I don't have a working machine at the moment because I broke my blade on cold butter.
Love it
Gurl, flooding

Like the food processor idea. Looks so easy. Will try making these.
I want the recipe but I don’t want to have to sign up for anything. That’s just wrong.
Can you use meringue powder instead of egg whites?
No, not eating raw egg whites.
Is there an alternate method of bringing all the ingredients together? I don’t have a food processor and use a stand mixer. Thank you for the tips.
What if you don’t have a food processor?
I fell asleep watching it the guys voice put me to sleep.
I need a food processor
