Preparation

Step 1

Combine all ingredients in large bowl & beat until it "balls up." Divide dough into 5 pieces & roll into logs, about 1.25 in. in diameter. Wrap in plastic wrap & freeze until ready to bake. Or if making right away, chill in refrigerator for a few hrs. or in freezer for 1 hr.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Slice chilled dough into 1/4-1/2 in. thick rounds. Place on greased or parchment-lined cookie sheets & bake 22-30 min. until brown & crispy.
