Recipe Notes

• Be sure your butter is softened before using. This will give your cookies their creamy texture. Need to soften it quickly?  Here's a tip.
• Do not skip refrigerating your cookie dough.  It is a very soft dough and keeping it in the fridge will make it easy to handle.  Keep it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before baking.  If desired, you can leave it in there longer or overnight, if needed.
• Storage: Keep any leftover cookies in a covered container.  If the weather is hot/humid in your area, put them in your refrigerator. 

Frosting

I simply frosted ours with a basic vanilla frosting (colored with food coloring).  Use your favorite homemade vanilla butter frosting or grab a container of the premade stuff.  Whichever works best for you!
