Excellent cookie. Rolled out perfectly (I did let it rest on the counter for 1/2 hr. 1st because I made the dough the day before) but after that it was great. I baked them for 10 min. per tray and they came out looking beautiful with the xmas sprinkles on them. Taste great too, a welcome addition to my xmas cookie platter. Thanks very much Angela
