To mix well, combine with you hands after stirring. This allows loose ingredients at the bottom of the bowl to mix in thoroughly. Make sure you wash your hand first and take off all jewelry. • Place a small amount of flour onto clean hands to make cookie balls. Roll the dough into small balls and place on greased cookie sheet. • Bake for 10-12 minutes. • Allow cookies to set on cookie sheet for only 2 or 3 minutes, then remove quickly and allow to cool on cooling racks. This allows the cookies to set up but prevents them from continuing to cook on the hot cookie sheet. Yields: 6 dozen |
