A sugar cookie is a simple cookie made from a basic dough of flour, sugar, butter, eggs, and vanilla, leavened with baking soda or baking powder. They are known for being buttery and can be either soft and chewy or crisp, and are frequently decorated with icing, sprinkles, or other toppings. Sugar cookies can be formed by hand, dropped onto a baking sheet, or rolled out and cut into various shapes using cookie cutters.
