Notes
- TO ROLL: chill the cookie dough overnight and roll between two layers of parchment paper. Once on the parchment paper lined pan, freeze on then pan for 30 mins. Then bake at 375 for 10-13 minutes until LIGHTLY golden brown and let cool on the pan. These might not be sweet enough if you don't add frosting so I still recommend frosting cut out cookies or use a glaze!
