Basic Dough for Cookies or Any Other Dish

Chef #1011127's Note:

this is the easiest dough mix ever. my mom got this recipe from a friend. we have used it to make nut rolls, cookies of various types and it comes very flaky . I am sure you could use it to make dishes with meat or vegetables as well. you can make big batches of this and freeze it. divide the dough into equal parts and freeze.
