I've been for the longest time trying to remember a simple recipe for
butter cookies. As I recall, butter, sugar, eggs and flour or something
like that.

Now, I tried this simple thing and it was a BOMB!
This kind of cookie is soooo good. Very plain but with that "home made"
taste. Please if anyone knows I'd appreciate a reply.
Sincerely, hopeful.

Butter/sugar cookie recipes are plentiful, but technique is the key. How are
you mixing. handling, shaping, and baking the dough?
