Lois Hoegg
Charlotte, Catherine and Rachel Crosbie

  • 1 cup butter (no substitutes)

  • 2 cups flour

  • ½ cup fruit sugar

  • 1 Tbsp brown sugar

Cut butter into dry ingredients with a pastry blender. Press together with hands. Roll out thinly, about ⅓ inch thick and cut out with a cookie cutter or small, round sharp object (½ of a tea ball is ideal). Place on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 300°F for 20 to 30 minutes, until done.
