Mom's Sour Cream Sugar Cookies- By Jani

2 cups butter
2 cups sugar
4 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup sour cream
8 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder

Cream butter, sugar and vanilla. Add eggs and sour cream and mix well. Slowly add the rest of the dry ingredients and mix until well blended.

Dough will be very sticky at first... Use plenty of flour while rolling out the dough.

Roll out to about 1/4 inch thick. Cut with floured cookie cutter and save scraps to roll out 1 more time. The more you roll out the dough the tougher the cookies get. I roll it all out once, cut my cookies and then roll the scraps out 1 time. The rest of the dough I just throw away.

Bake at 350* for 8 minutes. Cookies will not look done and will not be golden brown.

Frost with butter cream frosting.
