My Favorite Buttery, No-Roll, Chewy Sugar Cookies

Sharing is caring!

I never have the patience to refrigerate the dough for my sugar cookies. This recipe is my absolute favorite: buttery, chewy, put together and in your belly in no time.

 

Christmas time is here.

Well, that was fast.

My church had their Christmas kickoff, which really started my Christmas spirit, but then Thanksgiving and Black Friday came and left, so now my Christmas spirit is at FULL THROTTLE!

TINSEL EVERYWHERE!

Excuse the outburst.

You will have the hardest decision of the holiday season:

Bake these sugar cookies for presents or yourself.

Every year at Christmastime I feel like eating sugar cookies the entire month. Sugar cookies come out in droves and are usually given to neighbors and friends and I gain 5 pounds because I keep baking them after everyone has at least 3 batches and all the food gifts are given away. I know I'm not the only one guilty of this.

These cookies are the best sugar cookies, simply because they don't need to be refrigerated. I don't have the patience! A lot of the time I start baking on a whim, on a surreal cookie craving; they are my cookies and I need them now!

Not only are they quick, but they are soft, chewy and oh, so buttery. They practically melt in your mouth, and I totally suggest to roll them in sugar before baking for the ultimate in sugar cookie experiences.

Eat your heart out, Santa.

    These look so good!! I love that there is no chilling time too, because sometimes you just want to make cookies without planning three hours in advance!
