I adore citrus cookies, so if you’re the same, check out these Iced Lemon Amish Sugar Cookies and Iced Orange Amish Sugar Cookies. Same with these Toasted Coconut Amish Sugar Cookies. Omg, don’t you love an iced maple cookie?įor springtime and summer, these Iced Almond Sugar Cookies are gorgeous, and the almond flavor is so incredible. Other great fall variations, though they could really be for anytime are these Pecan Praline Amish Sugar Cookies and these Iced Maple Amish Sugar Cookies. I made a few that are great for fall/holidays, like these Pumpkin Spice Latte Amish Sugar Cookies, these Iced Chai-Spiced Amish Sugar Cookies, and these Peppermint Amish Sugar Cookies. Updated March 2019: I’ve now made these cookies into a BUNCH of different variations! Check ’em out: I’ve made these cookies 3x in the last few weeks. These are great as-is, and *incredibly* easy.

This is a perfect, simple sugar cookie recipe, and they need nothing else! I had no issues, and I loved everything about them. I tried this recipe a few weeks ago, and it was foolproof on attempt #1. Cut-outs are one of my favorite cookies, but I hate to make them because they’re so much work. They remind me a lot of a cut-out cookie, but without any rolling! You get all the benefits of cut-outs, but at a fraction of the work. These Amish Sugar Cookies are soft and puffy, but still dense and substantial. (Though… for the ultimate crispy sugar cookie: these Thin Crispy Amish Sugar Cookies, fyi!) Like these Amish Cookies, those Classic Sugar Cookies melt in your mouth, but the texture is different altogether – chewier and crispier. They’re ultra-chewy, with crispy edges, and really, really rich…. I made these Classic Sugar Cookies last year, and I adore those cookies. These sugar cookies are everything I was hoping for when I wanted to try a new sugar cookie recipe this year.

It’s not necessary, but it’s pretty damn amazing. That said, I have made these sugar cookies and frosted them. Aren’t they? And these Amish Sugar Cookies aren’t even iced, so I figured they must be a really good cookie if they can stand on their own without a glaze or icing. They looked so uncomplicated and simple, in an elegant way, not a basic way. They’re just so… pretty. These Amish Sugar Cookies called out to me in an issue of Taste of Home recently.
