These are the best danged sugar cookies you'll ever eat. This is my Grandmother's recipe. They're soft and chewy... not crispy like most sugar cookies.

1 1/2 cups sugar
2 egg yolks
1 tsp vanilla
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 cup sour cream
5 cups flour

Cream butter and sugar until fluffy. Beat in egg yolks. Add Vanilla, salt, baking soda, baking powder and sour cream. Gradually add flour. Cook 10-15 mins at 350 degrees.
