INSTRUCTIONS
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.
