    I looked at the picture, and it sounds like you're looking for Lofthouse Cookies. They are a special brand of soft, pale, lightly baked sugar cookies frosted with a buttercream type frosting. Many grocery stores sell either the brand name cookies or their own in-house bakery version.

    There was another thread about these cookies a couple of years ago. You can read the responses here:

    I've listed below a copycat recipe from RecipeZaar. I like those cookies too because they're so plain & simple tasting -- no chunks of nuts, chips, fruits, etc. The only thing I don't like about them is that they're often topped with candy sprinkles.

    I'm searching for you. I like the walmart frosted sugar cookies. I haven't tried this recipe but it sounds like the ones you buy at Walmart. If its good let us know.

    It was in the link, but I put it here for you.

    Butter Cream Frosting for Sugar Cookies

    1/2 cup butter or margarine (1 stick)
    1 box 10X powered sugar (around 3 cups if using a bulk bag)
    1 tsp vanilla flavoring
    2 to 3 TBS milk
    Food coloring Sugar sprinkles (for after the cookies are frosted)

    Directions:

    Again, let the butter/margarine sit out and soften. That makes mixing much easier, and it¡¦s also easier to get the correct consistency when adding the milk. If the butter is cold, then it gets too thin as it warms up. If this does happen, just add a little more powdered sugar.

    Cream the butter and powdered sugar putting in about a half cup of powdered sugar at time. If the powdered sugar looks pretty lumpy, it¡¦s a good idea to sift it, so you don¡¦t have sugar balls in the frosting. Mix well.

    Add the vanilla. Mix.

    Add around 1 TBS of milk and mix. Continue adding a tsp or so until the frosting is the right consistency for spreading. If you discover you¡¦ve made it too thin, stir in a little sugar. If it¡¦s too thick or starts to get too thick as you decorate add just a tiny bit more milk and stir.

    Add a couple of drops of food coloring and mix if you want a single color batch. It¡¦s more fun, however, to divide the frosting into small bowls and let everyone make a color. Be warned that some people (mostly boys) will put in all the colors and make ugly brown frosting. It still tastes great. And, this really is about having fun.

    If you want sugar sprinkles, then take some regular table sugar. Put a 1/4 to 1/2 cup or so in a zip lock bag. Add a little squirt of food coloring. Squeeze the bag until the sugar is all colored. It's fun also to divide the sugar out and make various colors like with the frosting.

    Sprinkle on the colored sugar. You may need to very lightly tap the sugar on top of the frosting if the frosting is starting to set.

    If you want the sugar sprinkles but not buttercream frosting, then make up the colored sugar and pat that on before baking the sugar cookies. If you try to put colored sugar on cookies without frosting after they're baked, the sugar will not stick.

    Did you have to roll them out or can you just press them onto the cookie sheet? Would you say they were like the walmart cookies?
