roll out small portions at a time to slightly less than 1/8'' thick

cut out with cookie cutters

place 1' apart on a lightly greased cookie sheet.

bake at 350' for 10-12 mins or until edges are very lightly browned

when cool let your imagination be your guide to decorating them

icing mix that I use is:

1 egg white, 1 1/2 cup powdered sugar, 2-3 teasp. water. vanilla optional

beat egg white until foamy. gradually add in the sugar. beat until smooth . beat in water 1 teasp at a time. you can add different food colorings in also.
