These are delectable! A delicate, vanilla flavor that reminded me of Pillsbury sugar cookies (which are my favorite!). The dough is also very easy to work with. I doubled the recipe, froze the dough, then rolled it into logs. I sliced some of the dough as directed; but I also rolled some of it into balls & the cookies also turned out lovely. This will be my stand-by cookie recipe! Thanks Kittencal! :)
