STARLIGHT SUGAR CRISPS

This recipe is from my Grandmother, Kathryn R. Willsey Hyde. As a little girl, I remember my grandmother making these and watching her knead the dough. They are so delicious! My mother used to make them just at Christmas time, and whenever I think of them, I think CHRISTMAS. They are especially fun to share during a cookie...

  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make your Starlight Sugar Crisps tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough before baking will help it hold its shape and prevent it from spreading too much in the oven.
