Giant Sugar Cookies



  • These taste alot like the Pillsbury slice and bake sugar cookies.

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda

  • 8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar, plus more for sprinkling on top

  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1/4 cup sour cream

Preheat oven to 350 degrees 

Whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda; set aside.

Beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy, 2 to 4 minutes.

 Add egg and vanilla; beat well to combine.

Add half the flour mixture, followed by sour cream, then remaining flour mixture; mix just until smooth. 

Drop mounds of dough, each equal to about 3 tablespoons, 3 to 4 inches apart, onto two ungreased baking sheets; sprinkle with sugar. These will flatten out big time so they need a lot of room!

Bake until edges of cookies are just firm and tops are barely beginning to brown, 20 to 25 minutes,
