Libby's Sugar Cookies

Libby and I hosted a little Halloween Party the other night for our friends. We had so much fun cooking and baking and then having everyone over to decorate cookies, carve pumpkins and just hang out!

We used Libby's family's sugar cookie recipe and WOAH, were they were good! They stayed perfectly soft after coming out of the oven and tasted fantastic! So here's the recipe for all those Christmas cookie baking that is going to be coming up!
