Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Chill the dough until it's easy to handle.
Roll dough out to a 1/8" thickness on parchment paper.
Use patterns to cut into shapes.
Bake 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
Check for air bubles during baking and poke them with a sharp knife or toothpick.
When baking is done, slide the parchment onto a large cooling rack.
Make sure all the pieces lie flat! Cool.
