Directions:
Add all wet ingredients in large mixing bowl, beat until smooth and light: about 2-4 min. Place all dry ingredients in a large bowl, take whisk and mix together. Then add to wet ingredients and mix together until no flour shows and is dough like. Chill for 1 hour. Roll into balls (the size of walnuts, I use a melon baller to get an even size). Then take each ball and roll in sugar. Place on parchment lined cookie sheets for best results. Bake at 350º for 10 minutes. Be sure to under bake. Makes four dozen!
