Old Fashioned Sugar Cookies Recipe Demonstration - Joyofbaking.com

Old Fashioned Sugar Cookies are sweet tasting. They are wonderfully soft and fluffy with crisp edges. An American favorite and although they were once made primarily during the Christmas season, they are now a year round favorite.

Hello Stephanie-

We were craving chewy Deli style lemon sugar cookies today during the ice storm, so I made these today but added 1/2 tsp of lemon extract and boy are they a hit! I do have to tell you how much I appreciate you. I have been watching your videos ever since I was a newly married wife and now a Mom to 2 teens and cannot tell you how helpful they have been to me over the years. Thank you so much!!

I was on a quest to replicate a sugar cookie from a French bakery in the neighborhood. I had been eyeing your recipe for awhile and watched your video twice and decided it might be the recipe that I was looking for. I followed the recipe and my cookies turned out just like in your photo-video. My quest was short. The texture and taste were EXACTLY what I was looking for (crusty edges, light colored, and slightly chewy texture). Thank you Stephanie!

Started to learn to bake a few months ago. Tried these today because MFS (My Favorite son) asked for sugar Cookies. They turned out great.

II was never good at consistent sized cookies. A term that gets thrown around for this sort of inconsistency s "rustic". So I took your advice about weighing the dough for each cookie. Worked great for these, and the ginger snaps, and the thin chocolate chip cookies.

Thanks

I made these today. Oh Boy! Hard to keep from eating them, they are sugar cookie perfection. We love lemon, so I dipped the tops in a lemon glaze ❤❤❤

Ah yes! The flat bottom glass dipped in sugar...staple for flattening both sugar cookies and ginger snaps! ❤️🇨🇦

I've had a hard day today and when I saw this video pop up I felt SO relieved... like, thank goodness there's a new Joy of Baking video to watch!! Thank you Stephanie for your dedication and all of the quality videos over the years. Your videos have been a comfort to me since I left home over six years ago. Stay well <3

You've reached the pinnacle of cooking when it "tastes just like mom used to make."

Never thought of flattening cookie dough with a glass. Thanks for the recipe. And great hairdo.

Really enjoyed your old fashioned sugar cookies recipe. I, too, like my cookies softer not not overly crunchy. I saved your video to my personal private Playlist for future referencing. I'm advanced in age and wanted to have this recipe handy for holiday baking for gifts 🎁 to "Friends and Neighbors"... Husband and I don't have family members located close by so they are our extended family ❤. Happy Holidays to You and Yours.
