Mine is super simple and works well. It's really easy to play about with and try different variations. 3 parts Flour... 2 parts Butter... 1 part Sugar How much flour will depend on your exact ingredients so add more as necessary. It should be dry enough to roll around and shape in your hand and peel it off a dusted surface without sticking. It shouldn't be so dry that it cracks when you're shaping it. I usually end up needing to add quite a bit more flour cos I use a really soft butter. I cook them at about 160°c for 10 ish minutes (depending on size and thickness). I like them rather soft so I pull them out just as they're starting to brown a little on the edges. The tops are usually still a bit wet, they dry as they cool. You can also leave them in for longer to get more crunch. You can take them out, try one and put them back if it's not done enough for you. I don't bother chilling them before I cook them, but you certainly can. You should also be able to freeze them. If you want to make them chocolate a bit like Oreos you can substitute some of the flour for dark cocoa powder. I like to do that and then sprinkle them with some sugar when they're cooked and cooling. More on reddit.com

This is my go-to sugar cookie recipe for several years and it has never failed me. It is a "small batch" recipe but doubles, triples, etc. with no issues. Just make sure to follow her note to only use egg yolk when making a larger batch. https://www.dessertfortwo.com/small-batch-sugar-cookies/ More on reddit.com

Have you tried chilling the cookie cutout prior to baking? That usually helps some. More on reddit.com
