We made these last night and they were delicious, as usual! I love mom's recipe. I think the trick is rolling them out nice and thick. Who wants a flat and crispy sugar cookie? These are so soft and thick and great tasting. For frosting, I just used a butter cream frosting. I started with 1/4 c. softened butter and added milk, vanilla, and powdered sugar until I got the consistency I wanted. Yum!
