- Make walnut size dough balls and place them on a non-stick baking sheet.
- With a fork, make a criss-cross design on each cookie - use the 1/3 cup of sugar if the dough gets sticky (I didn't have to).

- Remove from the oven, and sprinkle some of the sugar on the cookies.
- Store any left overs in an air tighter container.
