Incredible Sour Cream Sugar Cookies

Submitted by Prana Princess

"These particular sugar cookies are much more like small cakes, I think, than traditional sugar cookies, so you're free to frost or glaze them to your taste. We prefer them plain. I also use an old fashioned biscuit cutter to shape my cookies, so they turn out to be somewhat larger than a traditional cookie as well. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we do!"
