Instructions
Preheat oven to 350.
Mix sugar and butter in a large bowl until creamy.
Add eggs & flour to the butter mixture until soft dough ball forms.
Wrap dough in saran wrap and chill for 1 hour (makes it easier to roll).
Remove the dough from the fridge and place it on a floured surface.
Roll out a softball-size piece of dough with a rolling pin until very thin- 1/4-inch.
Cut with your favorite cookie cutter shape.
Place on an ungreased cookie sheet.
Brush the tops of the cookies lightly with egg wash and decorate with colored sugar sprinkles.
