Notes

By definition, a sugar cookie recipe should have the following ingredients: sugar, flour, butter, eggs, vanilla, and either baking powder or baking soda. Most often, round cookies are formed by hand-rolling the dough, and often holiday-themed and other fun shapes are created and then decorated or frosted during the hoildays and various special ocassions. This is quite a popular tradition in North America especially during Halloween, Christmas and Valentine's Day.



The modern-day sugar cookie can be traced all the way back to the mid 1700s in Nazareth, Pennsylvania, when German Protestant settlers created the soft, sugary, buttery cookie that came to be known as the Nazareth Sugar Cookie. Sugar cookies are likely derived from a previous unleavened cookie called a “jumble,” which is a biscuit that gained popularity in the 17th and 18th centuries in Europe mainly because of the fact that non-leavened foods could be dried and stored for many months, which was pertinent during those days.



As time progressed, the Nazareth Sugar Cookie gained wider popularity, and was adopted as Pennsylvania's official cookie by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania through a House bill. House Bill 1892 was introduced on September 5, 2001 to designate and adopt the Nazareth sugar cookie as the official cookie of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
