- Roll the dough out on a flat, floured surface.
- Do not roll the dough out too thin or too thick. I usually roll it out to about a 1/4 inch thick.
- Cut your cookies out and put them on an ungreased cookie sheet.
- Bake in the oven for 12-14 minutes at 350 degrees.
- **Note** do not overbake. I usually take them out of the over when the bottom of the cookies are slightly brown.
- Let cool in a single layer on wax paper.
- When they are cool, frost and decorate with colored sugars.
