Notes
- If you'd like to cut these into shapes, you would need to roll out the dough.
- I like mine a little thick, so I leave them about ¼-1/2 inch thick. Just make sure they are all the same thickness or they won't bake evenly. This dough will not spread out very much at all, so how they go into the oven is how they will come out.
