becomes too stiff and does not hold together in a ball, add water 1

unsweetened chocolate at this time. Divide dough into 2 balls. Do Not
Chill.

1/4 inch thick. Cut with cookie cutters. Bake on an ungreased cookie
sheet until the bottoms are golden brown, small cookies take about 6 to 7
minutes and large cookies take 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from sheets
to a wire rack to cool immediately.
5. Store in an airtight container to prevent drying.
