INSTRUCTIONS
Here are three, all from _Great American Cookies_ by Lorraine Bodger.
Preheat oven to 425 F. Grease cookie sheet(s).
1. Cream the butter and confectioners' sugar.
2. Stir the salt into the flour. With your hands, work 2 1/2 cups of the
flour into the creamed mixture alternately with small amounts of water. The
dough is ready when your hands come out clean, which may require using that
extra 1/2 cup flour.
3. Shape the dough into walnut-size balls and place the balls on the cookie
sheet, leaving 1 1/2 inches between them. Using a fork dipped in flour,
make criss-cross indentations on each cookie.
4. Bake for 10 minutes. The edges should be brown. Let the cookies cool on
the cookie sheet for a minute or two and then transfer to wire racks to
finish cooling.
