National Sugar Cookie Day is a day to satisfy your sweet tooth. However, as you pull out your cookie cutters, you quickly realize it’s just too hot to do any baking today. Going to the bakery to buy some on this July 9 holiday sounds like a much better idea. Popular with young kids, and old kids, sugar cookies usually don’t last long around the house. So, make sure you buy plenty of them.

It’s pretty easy to see how sugar cookies came to get their own special day. Almost everyone has had them. Many people are hooked on them. Put out a plate of sugar cookies, and you can be certain they won’t be there for long. We haven’t seen any surveys, but it’s a sure bet that sugar cookies are right up there with chocolate chip cookies as America’s favorite cookie.

Spend a portion of the day baking sugar cookies. They are very easy to make. If you have kids, make today a real family holiday, and let them help with the baking.
