Soft Sugar Cookies

My favorite sugar Cookie recipe to date(adapted slightly from my friend Allison's recipe):

Soft Sugar Cookies
Cream together:
1 cup softened butter
2 cups sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 teaspoon almond extract

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

Refrigerate an hour to overnight. Roll out and cut with cookie cutters. This dough is much easier to work with than my previous recipe. Bake at 400 degrees for 5-7 minutes 'till just barely brown (do not overcook). Makes 4-5 dozen. Frost with your favorite frosting (I like cream cheese).
