Notes
These are so versatile.
-You can use all white sugar for a different flavor. (more traditional sugar cookie)
-You can roll the cookies in cinnamon sugar at the end and bake.
-You can use other flavorings besides vanilla for a different flavor.
Try to use a baking stone to cook these, if you have one. (they ten to spread more on a metal pan)
Keep the dough chilled to prevent spread on either type of pan.
