More on Sugar Cookies
The sugar cookie came about during the middle of the 18th century in the PA|Nazareth area of the state of Pennsylvania. The sugar cookie was named the official cookie of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania on September 5, 2001.While other cookies are baked in a circle, sugar cookies can be rolled out and cut into shapes using cookie cutters. They can also be decorated with various icing and sprinkle combinations. Sugar cookies are baked until they form crisp edges, but some people prefer a soft and chewy texture. This is achieved by baking the cookies for less time.
