Make It Yours Sugar Cookie Recipe using Country Crock

Make It Yours

Smooth and Creamy:
I have always loved Country Crock and didn’t think that it could get any better. That is, until I tried this new Country Crock ® Churn Style. We used it last weekend for the bread that we served with our Easter dinner. It spread beautifully right out the refrigerator, was flavorful, and creamy just like real butter. Everyone loved it! I will be purchasing this product in the future and would recommend it to all my friends and family with confidence.

I received this product to review through Influenster and am working on my Country Crock® Make It Yours Badge. Here is my create your own #MakeItYours cookie recipe using Country Crock
