3 C al- purpose flour

COOKIES:
mix (with kitchen aid or hand beater )together for cookies: butter, sugar, eggs and lavender. When mixed add in sour creme. In seperate bowl whisk together: flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda. Add flour mixture to butter mixture. Put into fridge for 1/2 an hour to harden up. Cook in over @ 350 for 10-12 min.

FROSTING:
Um... I just kinda throw it all together until it looks right.... for this it should be more liquid than stiff, like you dip the cookie into the frosting... it's not spreadable... just look at the pics, ok?

Sugar Cookies - Megan Young
3 eggs

½ Cup butter

½ Cup margarine

3 Cups Sugar

1 tsp vanilla

Mix together. Alternately mix together sour cream and dry mixture.



1 cup sour cream

5 Cups Flour*

1 tsp baking soda

2 tsp baking powdersalt (a pinch)

* you'll need to knead more flour in in order to make it really work. Also sometimes I like to add a bit of nutmeg, for a little bit different flavor. Also Almond Extract will give you something a little different if you're feeling adventurous.



Bake at 375 8 – 10 minutes



Cream Cheese Frosting

1 8oz cube cream cheese

1/2 C butter

2 TBSP Milk

1 tsp vanilla



Enough Icing Sugar to bring it to the proper consistency.And to quote Devo: When a problem comes along,You must whip it. Before the cream sits out too long, You must whip it. When something's going wrong, You must whip it.Have Fun Ladies!
