My favorite sugar cookie recipe was handed down to me from my mother.  Our kids called her Mema.  She got the recipe from her mother, my Granny Lucille.  I passed the recipe to my daughters and granddaughters, and now to you!

Sprinkle with powdered sugar, or top with icing and decorations

Note: Sometimes I make my own icing, but usually I purchase icing already made.  It's also fun to melt chocolate wafers and dip cookies in melted chocolate or top cookies with melted chocolate.
