INSTRUCTIONS
PART A

Mix thoroughly part "A". Add and mix thoroughly part "B". Chill dough (I
mix it the night before). Preheat oven to 375F. Roll dough into walnut-size
balls. Dip tops in white sugar. Place sugar-side up on greased cookie
sheets. Sprinkle 2-3 drops of water on each for a crackled effect. Bake for
about 10-12 minutes til set but not hard.
