- Next add the flour until it forms a crumbly consistency.
- Turn onto a floured surface and work it into a smooth dough gently, but do not overwork the dough.
- Roll out quite thinly (about 1/8") and cut into rounds with a cookie cutter.
- Place on lined baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes (I turn them once through baking).
- Remove and place on cooling rack.

DECORATE COOKIES
- Mix the confectioner's sugar with a spoonful of water at a time until it becomes the right consistency to decorate (like glue.)
- Add colors as desired then decorate the cookies using the photos as inspiration.
Notes
- Be sure cookies are completely cooled before decorating.
- Allow icing to set before putting them away or packaging. I like to leave them overnight for best results.
