  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar

Instructions

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. Lightly grease two cookie sheets.
  • Mix together first five ingredients. Pour in cream and stir with a wooden spoon until the flour mixture is moistened.
  • Turn mixture out onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently until a soft dough forms, about 2 minutes. Don't overmix the dough.
  • Divide dough into three equal sized balls.
  • Flatten dough into a seven inch circle (use your hands to flatten the dough out) and cut each dough circle into eight triangles.
  • Place on cookie sheets about two inches apart. Brush tops with melted butter and sprinkle with sugar.
