The BEST Drop Sugar cookies are always made by Grandma first.   Some of my best childhood memories are grandma making these thick, soft, yet tender crisp on the bottom – sugar cookies.  I have tried recipe after recipe and always come back to this one for ease and taste.

Drop Sugar Cookies – 2 eggs, 2/3 c. sugar, 2/3 c. oil, 2 tsp. real vanilla, Stir with a fork till thick and fluffy.  Add: 2 c. flour, 2 tsp. baking pwd, 1/2 tsp. salt.  Stir well and drop on a greased cookie sheet – 1/4 c. dough for large cookies – Bake 350 for 13 – 15 – cool on rack – Frost and Decorate with candy sprinkles for holidays – picture shown is for Valentines Day Cookies

ButterCream Whipped Frosting – 1/2 c. softened real butter, 2 c. powdered sugar,      1 – 1/2 tsp. real vanilla, dash of salt, 1 – 2 Tbsp. hot milk – Beat butter till fluffy, add other ingredients, beating till whipped and fluffy.   My grandmas favorite way to make this frosting was to add orange or lemon peel to taste and then frost.  (For chocolate butter cream icing add 1/3 c. lightly packed cocoa – excellent on brownies)
