Simple Sugar Cookies



Simple sugar cookies!  I received this recipe from a friend a few years ago and it's become a staple at our house during the holidays.  No refrigeration required, easy to roll out and delicious. 

Of course, even easier when I do not frost individually but quickly drizzle holiday colors across all of the cookies.  Enjoy!
