Ingredients

Butter, softened
1 1/2 cups Granulated Sugar
3 Large Eggs
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
3 1/2 cups All-Purpose Flour
2 tsp Cream of Tartar
1 tsp Baking Soda
1/2 tsp Salt

Instructions

Start by creaming together the butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla until the mixture is smooth.
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, blending until fully combined.
Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least an hour (overnight for best results).
Preheat the oven to 325°F. Roll out small portions of the chilled dough on a floured surface to 1/4 inch thickness. Use cookie cutters to create shapes.
Place the cut-out dough on a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges are slightly brown.
Allow the cookies to cool completely before decorating with your favorite glaze or icing. Then, enjoy these delicious treats!

Store these Perfect Sugar Cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. For longer storage, freeze the cookies in a freezer-safe container for up to three months. To reheat, simply place them in the oven at 325°F for a few minutes to refresh the crispness.
