"Drop" Sugar Cookies

Submitted by Clever Cooking

"This Sugar Cookie recipe is one of my favorites. I use Coconut Oil in place of half the butter (it makes these homemade cookies even better!) The original name of these cookies was Amish Sugar Cookies, but after my substitute, I wasn't sure that the Amish would approve so I hope you will make them, love them and put your own name to them. Enjoy!"
