Sugar Cookies for a Crowd
Sugar Cookies for a Crowd
The Amish expect unannounced company. They are seldom caught unprepared with their bountifully stocked canning shelves and flourishing gardens.
One efficient and experienced cook has found a way to both entertain and feed her guests. “I mix a big batch of sugar cookies and only bake half of them at a time. The other half I keep in the refrigerator for up to two to three weeks. What I like is if someone comes, then you have something to do. And the cookies are much better, too, when they’re fresh!”
