Looking for a great Sugar Cookie Recipe (not the cut out type)

[Anonymous]

I have tried three recipes and none seem quite right. I’m looking for a sugar cookie recipe that is crisp but chewy in the middle. Not the cut out and decorate type, but the other kind. Any suggestions?

Have you tried anything from Sally’s Baking Addiction?

These aren’t quite “chewy” in the center, but they’re dead easy and delicious and don’t require cutting out. I wonder if you didn’t smash them how they’d cook up? Maybe that would be closer to the chewy center you want.

Why dont you purchase cookie dough from a local bakery or online small business.

What I can tell you is don’t use Mamie Eisenhower recipe.

These are very popular and highly reviewed except more on the soft and chewy side:

I’m not sure, but I volunteer to do the taste testing.

The answer is buy Potbelly's sugar cookies.

Stella Parks has all kinds of sugar cookie recipes and they're all great! Soft and chewy, roll and cut out, and lofthouse style.
Recipes are on Serious Eats.

What do you mean not the cut out and bake kind? Do you mean where you create a log and slice it? It's the same dough, you're just forming the cookie itself differently.

No. It’s not. Two very different kinds of cookies.

I posted the Shauna Sever recipe above and you scoop these and roll them into balls, then flatten. It’s not a log and it’s not a roll and use a cutter to cut them out, either.

In Katrina’s Kitchen Sugar Cookie recipe is the one. Amazing.
