Vanilla Spice Slice and Bake Cookies

"I love slice and bake cookies. You can dip half of the cookie in white or chocolate icing if you like. I leave them plain usually. Make this dough and put it in your freezer until ready to use."

  1. Made the dough and froze, pulled out of the freezer for a last minute dessert. These were good, but I only got 40 normal sized cookies. Not sure how small they would have to be to get 80! Will add more cinnamon and cardamom next time, as I think the spices got lost with the 2 tsp of vanilla. Will definitely make again. Thanks for an easy recipe!
