These sugar cookies use vegetable oil instead of butter or crisco.  I wanted to make something quick for work today and thought these would work.  I did freeze the dough for a few hours before baking to keep the cookies from spreading too much.   I only used 3 cups of flour, I may use a little more next time and add some cornstarch too.

Remember to scoop your flour from your flour bag so you get the right amount.  Freeze the individual doughs for an hour or so before baking.   Preheat oven to 350 degrees before baking.  And only bake these 9 to 11 minutes, no longer.

• Ingredients list
• 1 cup vegetable oil
• 1 1/2 cups sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 3 to 3 1/2 cups flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 tsp salt
• Extra sugar

Directions – in a bowl, combine sugar and vegetable oil.  Add eggs and vanilla.  Blend in flour, baking soda and salt.   Scoop out individual doughs and form tall mounds.  Freeze and hiur or to.  When ready to bake, preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and stack cookies on sheet.  Bake 9 to 11 minutes, no longer.   Pop in fridge to firm up and cool, as cookies may be gushy.
