How To Tell If Sugar Cookies Are Done?

Sugar cookies are different than standard cookies. Usually, you’re looking for a golden brown color. This is not the case with sugar cookies! They should be baked until they get a glimpse of color and look a little crackled. This will ensure that they have that tender and chewy texture.
