Quick & Easy Sugar Cookies
October 31st, 2006 by admin
This is such an easy recipe, that it would make a nice project for family night. You could make up several batches - some for you, and some to share with your neighbors. How easy you say? You simply pour all ingredients into a bowl - then mix, drop, and bake!
2 eggs
2/3C oil
2t vanilla
3/4C sugar
2C flour
2t baking powder
1/2t salt
Mix ingredients in order (1 at a time) in a large bowl. Then drop onto greased cookie sheets. Dip fork into sugar & press cookies into desired shape. Bake @ 375 degrees until golden.
* For a nice change you could: add food coloring - mold into shapes - add colored sprinkles, choc. chips, cinnamon - or have kids flatten dough with hands & use cookie cutters.

Thank you soooo much for this easy sugar cookie recipe!
I had to have something fast for my Sunday School class this morning. I will pass this recipe on to my friends and other mothers.
Sincerely,

You’re very welcome! Hope everyone enjoyed them :)
Hi!
I run a Family Child Care in Mesa and been looking for a EASY recipe for my Children I care for and I found it! It was easy to have children mix and drop the cookies. I love the option to drop or smash and use cookie cutters! We have been looking at the Letter C.They got to make a whole sheet to take home, they ate one after frosting and sprinkling.
Thank YOU!!
I don’t know what the other people did, but I made these cookies and the dough was a big mess. Even so, I went ahead and dropped the cookies on a greased cookie sheet. They did bake fast, but the cookie was very bland. There was no milk in this cookie.I don’t know if this was an error or not.I would not recomment this receipe
all you have to do is add enough milk until it’s a dough
Dear Julia -
Thank you for your email. I’m sorry that your cookies did not turn out as expected. I think that happens to all of us sometimes. I had my daughter make our family a batch of these cookies tonight - just to see how they would turn out (having her make them). I asked he to put a little extra vanilla in the mix - as that’s our family preference. She mixed the dough in our mixer, dropped the cookies on the sheet, and they cooked. They turned out very nice, and we all loved them.
Perhaps you were trying to roll the cookies out? If that was the case, this recipe is meant to be dropped - not rolled (thus the “easy” part of the recipe).
Perhaps you might try it again & see if this makes a difference?
Thanks for taking the time to write in & I hope I’ve helped a bit.
Have a great day! (lots of snow here in Upstate, NY today!)
is the t teaspoon or tablespoon
The “t” is for teaspoon.
Usually if there is a capital “T” is means tablespoon - a lower case “t” means teaspoon.
Thank you for bringing this question up. I’ll try to remember the confusion it can cause, and change the way I write future recipes!
Have a great day!

Thank you so much! I was in a bind and needed to get another cookie baked, and I didn’t have a few hours to wait. I will surely put this at the top of my recipe pile!
I love this recipe. It was very easy and made a perfect Christmas cookie with red and green sprinkles on top. Thanks a bunch!
Thanks for the easy recipe. I was looking for something that did not call for butter (as I was out ) and the 3rd of the month is a long way off and being broke this early in the month is bad. I have my grandson for the weekend and he is not able to understand that Grandma does not always have to give what he wants. I made the cookies and added some pieces of a candy bar, and he thought that it was wonderful to help me make Magic cookies. This is what he called them cause they are made from things we did not have to buy and it is magic to pull the items out of the cupboard and refrigerator when he knew there was nothing there. You are great.
