I've got a cookie recipe for you today. It's an old one that I got from my SIL about 35 years ago. This is a crispy cookie that people tell me is perfect with coffee. I don't drink coffee, so I can't vouch for that, but they are very good! These cookies have to be mixed and then refrigerated overnight, so you do have to plan ahead. However, they mix up quickly and since they are a roll and slice cookie, they are very easy to bake the next day. They freeze very well so they can be made ahead of time.
3 sticks butter (1 1/2 cups)
1 1/2 cups sugar
3 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
Cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Stir flour and baking soda together and mix with butter/sugar mix, add vanilla and beat until smooth.
Shape dough into rolls and wrap with plastic wrap. Refrigerate overnight.
The next day preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Slice dough rolls into cookies, about 1/4 inch thick for 12 minutes until golden.
Those look good. I think I need to give them a try! Thanks for the recipe!

They look good but I like a chewy cookie, buy I could take them out of the oven early and they would be chewy.
