My mother's recipe from the old Public Service Company of New Mexico cookbook. We always rolled out the dough and cut out the cookies with a cookie cutter.

Them’s fighting words. They’ll find a place in the desert to leave you😜

If you go to Home Depot, Lowes, or Walmart they have paint sticks in the paint department. Just ask the paint person if you can have a couple they will gladly offer two for free. If you place the sticks on the counter flat and keep the dough in between the sticks using a rolling pin you can achive your 1/4" thickness. If the sticks are not 1/4" thick then glue two together (you will need 4 sticks if you do this). Then cut them out with a cookie cutter or top end of a Collins glass. Splash of brandy also gives a nice touch. Love your videos!

It is the best cookie ever! My mother would bake them only at Christmas time so my sisters and brothers and I looked forward to this time of the year!
Our mother passed last Christmas, but we still have her hand written recipe for biscochitos .
