Step by step

Method

  1. 01

    Preheat oven to 375°F.

  2. 02

    Cream all ingredients except flour together.

  3. 03

    Add flour and mix sparingly—it should be dry enough to form into balls by hand without sticking.

  4. 04

    Form into walnut-sized balls and place on ungreased cookie sheet.

  5. 05

    Flatten with a fork by pressing the tines of the fork across the cookie. Repeat going in the other direction to make a criss-cross pattern.

  6. 06

    Bake for about 8–10 minutes.

Ready to serve

Serve the dish as directed and enjoy it while it is at its best.

Bon appétit — enjoy your meal!
