Here is a picture of my daughter decorating them when she was about three years old. Many times, I gave them as gifts. I will surely miss my aunt and as a tribute to her, I am posting her cookie recipe so everyone can enjoy them.Sour Cream Cookies
6 C. flour
3 C. powdered sugar
1 t. salt
2 t. soda
3 T. vanilla
1 C. margarine
2 C. granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 C. sour cream
Preheat oven to 350°. Sift flour, powdered sugar, and soda. Mix together granulated sugar, eggs, margarine, and vanilla. Add sour cream and then gradually add the flour mixture a little at a time. The dough will become very thick. When ready, roll the dough out on a floured surface and cut with cookie cutters. Place on a greased cookie sheet and bake for about 12 minutes.
Cool the cookies and then frost with your favorite icing and decorate with colored sugar or candy pieces.
Rest in piece, Aunt Hilma.

(((HUGZ))) Sad to hear about your aunt; she left you a wonderful legacy in her cookies. I think I'll try these this year; they sound yummy!
HUGS from me, too. :(
But how sweet, to have something tangible to remember her by and pass on to your daughter. Thanks for sharing!
