Grandma's No Roll Sugar Cookies

Today my mom (granny) came over for a day of making Christmas goodies with the grandkids. 

We used my late mother-in-law's recipe for these no roll sugar cookies.  My mother-in-law, Dorothy, was the real baker.  She spent each December making an assortment of cookies that really could put any local bakery to shame. 

While we didn't get nearly as extravagant as she would've, I think our efforts today would have made her a little proud. 

These cookies taste just fine how they are and are easy to store (& freeze) this way. 
We are planning to let all the kids frost these at Christmas as an activity. 

It will be super simple whip up a batch of frosting the day of the decorating.
