- wrap in plastic wrap or waxed paper and chill overnight in refrigerator.
- Cut dough into 1/8" thick slics.
- Place on a greased, sprayed on lined with parchment paper cookie sheet.
- Preheat oven to 375*.

- Cool 1 minute on baking sheet or until firm.then transfer cookies to wire rack and cool completely.
- When I make these around the Christmas holiday.pistachio nuts give it an unusual look and the green is pretty for that holiday.
- Sometimes I roll the dough edges in colored sugar or nuts for an attractive edge around the cookie.
