Dough Cookies

So you have some leftover dough from that quiche, right?  Here's a little idea of what do do with it, rather than let it go to waste.  This is something my mom used to do/still does, and that is to make dough cookies with leftover pie dough.  It's simple... all you have to do is take that dough, break it into pieces about 1 to 1 1/2 inches, sprinkle them with cinnamon and sugar, and then bake.... they are muy delicioso, and quite good to snack on as you wait for your quiche to bake.


Dough Cookies

Ingredients:
Leftover Pâte Brisée
Cinnamon
Sugar

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. Break dough into 1-1 1/2 inch pieces, or you can get fancy and roll out the dough a a bit, and cut into 1-1 1/2 inch circles.
3. Sprinkle the dough with cinnamon and sugar.
4. Place your cookies on a nonstick baking sheet, or a baking sheet lined with foil.
5. Bake about 10 minutes, until the cookies turn golden brown.

  2. You're welcome Eva :) I was always so excited when my mom would make dough for anything because of these cookies- they are the simplest thing in the world, and also are awesome because then you aren't wasting any leftovers!
