equal pieces & roll each piece into a log. Wrap each log in plastic
wrap & refrigerate 2 or 3 hours or overnight.
Preheat oven to 375F. Lightlky coat a non-stick baking sheet (why if
it’s non-stick would one have to do this?) with cooking spray & set
aside.
Lightly flour work surface. Roll each log into a thin dough about
1/8″ thick. Cut into shapes with cookie cutters. Transfer to baking
sheet & bake for 5 minutes or until firm. Cool on wire cooling racks.
