Soft Cut Out Cookies

CREAM
1 cup butter
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla

ADD
1 cup sour cream
6 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking soda

Roll 1/4 inch thick and cut with cookie cutter.  Bake at 400 degrees for 5-7 minutes 'till just barely brown (do not overcook).

*So soft, the best sugar cookie I have ever had.  These cookies have become a tradition at our house as part of our Christmas deliveries.  However, being the start of spring, we decide to celebrate with new cookie cutters!  We made a color wheel of sorts by mixing the frostings to come up with the colors we wanted.  Lots of fun!  Makes about 5 dozen.
