Sugar cookie question

I found a delicious recipe for sugar cookies that contains all the usual ingredients, with the addition of sour cream. However, the recipe does not instruct me to chill the dough.

Do you suggest that I chill the dough, especially since it contains 5 cups of flour?

It can’t hurt and may well give you a dough that’s much easier to handle and bake properly, but if the recipe comes from a reputable source, I’d try following its directions exactly for at least one batch and see what happens. There may be a reason that it doesn’t call for chilling.
