I've been on the search for the recipe for what I called coffee can sugar cookies-- because grandma sent them with us in a coffee can --they were also the size of a coffee can! So we have this recipe which is titled Grandma Lorraine's cut-out sugar cookies and had it marked "just ok not great" so I don't think it's the right one.
1 c sugar
1 c butter
2 eggs
3 T sour cream or sour milk
1 tsp soda
3 c flour
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla

375* 5-10 minutes

We also have this recipe titled Gail's White Cookies:
2 c sugar
1 c butter
2 eggs
1 c sour cream
1 tsp soda
1/4 tsp nutmeg
4 1/2 c flour
Roll thin, sprinkle with sugar.

and this one called Grandpa's Sugar Cookies
1 c lard or 1 1/4 c shortening
1 1/2 c sugar
2 eggs
1/3 c milk or orange juice
1 tsp nutmeg
3/4 tsp salt
1 tsp soda
1 tsp baking powder
2 tsp vanilla
3 c flour
Roll out and cut with cookie cutter

425* 10-12 min

and yet another titled Mother's Sugar Cookies from Alyce
5 c flour
2 c sugar
1 tsp soda
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1 c butter or butter/oleo mix
3 eggs
1/2 c buttermilk
1 tsp vanilla

Sift flour & 1 cup sugar & next 4 ingredients. Cut in butter. Mix with fingers. Beat eggs slightly & add rest of sugar. Blend in buttermilk & vanilla. Chill before rolling. Sprinkle with sugar before baking.
That is the order of the written insructions but doesn't say when to add wet to dry.
375* 8-15 min until slightly brown.

So there you have it.... I don't know if any of these are coffee can cookies or not! Knowing grandma, it's likely none of these are the actual recipe!
