Best Sugar Cookies!

So there are about a million or more sugar cookies out there, and I'm sure everybody has their favorite. I know I did, until I found this recipe! This comes from the sister's cafe and makes the moisest, tastiest sugar cookies you've ever had and great for the holidays! Enjoy :)

Super Moist Sour Cream Sugar Cookies
Ingredients:
1 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 cup sour cream
2 eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 teaspoon almond extract
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
pinch of salt
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
4 cups flour

Buttercream Frosting:
4 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
4 tablespoons milk
1/2 cup shortening
1 1/2 cups butter

Cream together softened butter with sugar, sour cream and eggs. Add vanilla, almond extract, baking powder, baking soda, salt and nutmeg. Slowly add flour, 1 cup at a time. Dough should be sticky. Refrigerate one hour. Knead dough on floured board. Roll out and cut with cookie cutters. Bake for 7-9 minutes at 350 (I do 325). Frost with Buttercream Frosting.
