  4. Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
  5. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  6. Roll dough into 1 1/4 inch balls.
  7. Dip each ball in sugar on one side.
  8. Place approximately 2-3 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet, sugar side up.
  9. Lightly press a dinner fork flat across each ball twice to make a criss cross pattern.
  10. Sprinkle flattened dough with light amount of sugar to dust the criss cross.
  11. Bake 9 to 10 minutes, until cookies are light brown.
  12. Allow cookies to cool for 2 minutes before removing from tray.
  13. Enjoy! ;).
  14. TIP- another idea is to press a Hershey's kiss into the middle of each ball prior to baking instead of flattening it with a fork for a Peanut Butter Kiss . ;) Kids love these!
