How to make it
- Cream butter and sugar; add the eggs and beat until fluffy. Sift together dry ingredients, add to the butter mixture and beat until well mixed.

- Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- On a well-floured board, roll out one dough portion to 1/8-inch thickness.
- Cut into shapes with cookie cutters and set 1 to 2 inches apart on baking sheet. Re-roll leftover dough and cut more. Repeat with remaining dough portions.
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until just crisp. Do not allow to darken. Cool on racks.
- Melt chocolate and drizzle over cookies. Allow to harden before serving. Makes 3 to 4 dozen.
