INSTRUCTIONS
The following recipe was brought from France to Scotland by Mary, Queen of Scots. The French name for it, "Petits Gateaux Tailles" means "little cakes cut off", but the name came to be pronounced as it sounded...... Mix thoroughly with hands. Press and mold into a long, smooth roll about 2" in doameter.Wrap in waxed paper and chill until stiff, (several hours or overnight). With a thin, sharp knife, cut into thin slices 1/8" to 1/"16". Place slices a little apart on ungreased baking sheet. Bake until lightly brown, 400o for 8 - 10 minutes. Makes about 6 doz. 2" cookies. Note: if you bake them for Christmas you might want to add 1 teaspoon of red or green coloring to the dough.
