Mix all ingredients together well. Make balls of dough the size of
walnuts, and place them on a greased cookie sheet 3-4″ apart. Flatten with
a glass dipped in sugar. Bake at 325 F for 6-8 minutes. Or, if you like,
refrigerate overnight. Roll out cold dough for cookie shapes cut with
cookie cutters. If dough is sticky, add flour.
