World’s Best Sugar Cookies are easy sugar cookies that are simply delicious. This recipe has been passed down in my family.

I seem to be bragging lately or being arrogant about my food. I’ve called my BBQ pork ribs “World’s Best” and now I’m calling my sugar cookies the same. I did dub the ribs “World’s Best.” However, this sugar cookie recipe has been passed down in our family and somewhere along the way it was given the name “World’s Best Sugar Cookies.” These cookies are pretty good. And while I haven’t tried every kind, I do like these the best.
