The Simplest Three-Ingredient Cookie Recipe
Sugar cookies are one of the easiest and most delightful treats you can make at home. These cookies can be shaped by hand or rolled and cut into various fun shapes. They are soft, tender, and perfect for any occasion. The best part? They have a shelf life of up to two weeks when stored in an airtight container in your kitchen.
