- Roll dough into balls (small or large-depending on what size cookie you want), then roll in a bowl of white sugar to completely coat. Place on a greased cookie sheet, and bake at 350°F for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the cookies are crackled and set. Let the cookies cool for 10 minutes, then remove them to a wire rack to cool completely.
