Place lots of granulated sugar in a shallow bowl. Coat cookies with the sugar on both sides. Place rounds on ungreased baking sheets. Prick each round with a fork about 4 times. Bake 7 to 9 minutes.

When cookies have cooled make sandwiches by placing some filling between two cookies. Reviews Katrina from Pennsylvania These cookies are delicious!!! Everyone who tastes them agrees with me. I have almost the exact same recipe; the only difference is mine doesn't call for an egg. I have made these for Christmas, Easter, a bridal shower and many other occasions. |
