Hi girls I've never been over to these boards, I am usually over on JAB. Anyway I am getting ready for the holidays, and I love to make cookies with the kids. They love to cut them out and decorate them. I've tried lots of recipies, but mine always turn out dry, and gross. I'm not sure why, b/c I love to bake and most of my stuff turns out great, except these stupid sugar cookies. Anyway I'm on a hunt for a great, moist, chewy sugar cookie recipe(or any other kind that the kids can cut out and decorate). Does anyone have one? I would greatly apprecieate it. Thanks bunches!
