"go ahead...eat the dough"
This is recipe for a sugar cookie, brought to my family by my grandma, Phyllis Richardson. The cookies are unusual in the fact that they are very fluffy; almost a mix between cookie and cake. Usually made around Christmas time, my family always decorates these cookies with red or green sprinkles. In the off chance that they are made during the year (not around Christmas), sprinkle the cookies with cinnamon.
