World’s BEST Sugar Cookies

February 12, 2018

I’ll be honest- I made these and prepared 90% of this post before Christmas, fully intending to get it out in December! But, you know what? Time got away from me and it never was published! C’est la vie! Thankfully, there are about, oh,  a thousand occasions through out the year where one needs to make Epic Sugar Cookies-  Valentines Day is no exception! So here is our VDAY day version of these INCREDIBLE sugar cookies! My little baking helper is not much of a Picasso in the cookie decorating department but truly,  these cookies are so darn good, WHO cares if they aren’t perfect (aesthetically speaking!).

Ingredients:

  1. 1 1/2 Cup Butter
  2. 2 Cups White Sugar
  3. 4 Eggs
  4. 1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
  5. 5 Cups All Purpose Flour
  6. 2 Tsp Baking Powder
  7. 1 Tsp Salt

Method:

  1. Cream together butter and sugar in a large bowl.
  2. Beat in Eggs and Vanilla
  3. Add in Flour, Baking Powder and Salt
  4. Cover and chill for at least one hour or over night (We like to do the “Mixing” one day and the baking/ decorating the next day. The dough is easier to roll- and it allows for two days of fun with your kid- helpers!)
  5. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F
  6. Roll out dough on a floured surface approx 1/4 to 1/2 inches thick.
  7. Cut into shapes with any cookie cutter (or use a knife!)
  8. Place cookies an inch or so apart on un-greased cookie sheet
  9. Bake for 6 to 8 minutes until cookies are just golden
  10. Cool on wire rack and ice/ decorate when completely cooled.

We hope you enjoy these with your GALentines, PALentines, Valentines or little Valentines! Be sure to tag us on Instagram @rivercitysisters to show us your creations!

Hey Alberta! I’m so excited to share with you th Hey Alberta! I’m so excited to share with you that I’m partnering with @ATBFinancial on a super fun and incredible new campaign for mental health, ATB Up! ATB Up is a series of simple social challenges inspiring us all to get up to give back! From March 1 to 12, a new challenge will be rolled out each weekday—so get ready to pose with your bubble, share some good vibes, and move your body for a great cause! 

No spoilers, but on March 11th my challenge to you will involve snapping or creating some funny pics- so brush up on those iphone photography skills!! 

The more challenges you complete and share using the hashtag #ATBUp, the more you’ll give back from the comfort of your casa! Every time an Albertan posts or shares a challenge with the hashtag #ATBUp, ATB will donate one dollar to @mentalhealthab. How incredible is that?!?

So you’ll feel good, while you’re doing good for other Albertans, and even have the chance to win prizes! Join me March 1 to 12! Let’s have some fun—and get up to give back with ATB Up!

I know a Girl, she puts the COLOR inside of my wor I know a Girl, she puts the COLOR inside of my world ✨

...and that’s an understatement! To know Frankie is to Love her! Truly!

This little lady brings so much joy, laughter and sweetness to everything and everyone around her. Which is a very good thing - considering she prefers to rise before the sun, has a serious stubborn streak and is a tiny tornado always leaving a trail of crumbs in her wake! 🤪

In all seriousness, she is such a bright light in our lives, and has taught me more in the last three years than I ever thought possible. I am grateful to God everyday that He chose me to be her mama. 🤍 

Happy T H I R D Birthday my love, may you never change!
