Ingredients
- 9 ounces sugar
- 8 ounces butter
- 1 tsp. salt
- 2 tsp. vanilla
- 8 ½ ounces flour
- ¼ tsp. bakers ammonia
- Coarse sugar
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Beat together the sugar, butter, salt, and vanilla. Add the flour and bakers ammonia, and beat until the dough almost comes together, scraping the bowl once. It’ll seem quite dry at first, but keep beating; eventually it will clump up and become cohesive. This could take up to 5 minutes. Squeeze the dough together, gather it into a ball and break off pieces about the size of a chestnut. Roll the balls into sugar, and flatten the balls to about ¼ inch thick.
Bake for 25 – 30 minutes.
