Despite their popularity in the US, sugar cookies where invented in Germany during the 1700. Today, a good 300 and something years later, people make these all over the world. They used to be christmas cookies but now they're everyday delight cookies. I felt like having some of these today, and decided to use a cookie press to shape them into cute little cookies to take to my parent's house this afternoon.
