Vienna Sugar Cookies - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 tablespoon dry yeast (scant)
    1/2 cup lukewarm water
    1 cup butter
    2 cups flour
    1 cup sugar
Preparation
    Dissolve yeast in warm water and set aside. In a large mixing bowl, beat butter until creamy. Gradually add flour. Add yeast mixture and blend well. Refrigerate dough until well chilled.
    Spread sugar out on a large piece of waxed paper. Roll walnut-sized balls of dough into the sugar, pressing flat until dough is thin, about the size of a doughnut. Keep flipping dough and pressing into sugar during this stage.
    Place on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 375 degrees for 10-15 minutes, until very lightly browned around the edges. Cool on racks.
