Today is Sugar Cookie Day

We love to bake sugar cookies around here. 
Cookies in general are gobbled up faster than Cookie Monster on a sugar high.  
I do have go to recipes for sugar cookies and this is one of them.  
The main change here is using Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk. 

Oh, so very YUMMY!

Eagle Brand Cut out Cookies

3 1/2 C flour
2t baking powder 
1/4 t salt
1 14 oz sweetened condensed milk
3/4 C butter

1T flavoring (either almond, vanilla or lemon)

Combine flour baking powder and salt. Beat milk, butter, eggs and flavoring in bowl for one minute.  Add flour mixture and combine.  Divide into thirds and chill for two hours.

Pre heat oven to 350.  Roll out dough onto lightly floured surface. Cut into shapes. Bake 9 to 11 minutes
