Classic Cutout Cookies

Happy Holidays!
In my case, that means Merry Christmas, very soon, and while thinking and planning ahead to making old-fashioned sugar cookies with my grandkids, I am also thinking about providing for myself. I can't be around high-carb goodies all season and not indulge myself with a good workaround. Better a legal indulgence than any all-out cheat, I always say.
In the Spirit of the Season, I'd like to share one of my favorite cookies creations with you - I call them "Classic Cutouts" since I can't bring myself to call them Sugar Cookies. I made these first way back in 2001, so they are celebrating a decade this year!
Guilt-free, Gluten-Free, and Sugar-Free with a delicate texture and taste that caused my teenage son and his friends to scarf down all of MY cookies last year - in addition to their regular ones! We had some WORDS about that, trust me! But I couldn't help feeling flattered.
These need no icing to be delicious, but a little warmed cream cheese with some vanilla and sweetener and a teaspoon of cream makes a lovely drizzle. I have also used a lemon glaze instead of vanilla, then sprinkled with poppy seeds... MMMMM!
