Recipes Desserts Cookies Cut-Out Cookie Recipes Shaped Vanilla Cookies 4.3 (107) 89 Reviews 17 Photos These are soft, cake-like cookies, best with frosting. Roll them out thickly, and bake no more than 8 minutes. They will stay soft, and everyone raves over them. I use them as cutouts for holidays.
