Today is National Sugar Cookie Day.  Many people long for chocolate chip or complicated crazy complicated cookies.  I long for simple perfection like a Snickerdoodle or delicious Sugar Cookie.  It should be pillowy on the inside, slightly crunchy on the outside and redolent of butter and plain sugar.  If perfectly balanced it is delightful.  Too often at bakeries it is shrugged off or blandly done.  But when you get that perfect balance, Katie bar the door.
