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.
