Bake for 11-13 minutes or until very lightly browned. Do not over bake.
  • Remove from oven and allow to cool just enough to be able to handle them. Pour 1 cup powdered sugar in large Ziploc bag or in a wide bowl. Gently add 3-4 cookies at a time and roll them gently in powdered sugar. Gently shake to remove excess powdered sugar and place on cooling racks. Optional: Once completely cooled roll in powdered sugar bag again.
