Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

1/4 c Butter, cold
1 1/3 c Flour, all-purpose
1 Egg
5 oz Sugar
1 pn Salt
1 pn Nutmeg
Sugar for sprinkling

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, Rub the butter into the
flour. In a small bowl, beat the egg with half of the sugar, add the
egg mixture and the remaining sugar to the butter and flour mixture.
Add the salt and nutmeg and mix well. Roll the dough between the
palms of your hands to form 18 pieces the size of a walnut; moisten
your hands or flour them for rolling the dough. Sprinkle dough pieces
lightly with sugar and place 2-3 inches apart on a cookie sheet lined
with buttered craft paper. Bake until very lightly browned around the
edges and on the bottoms, about 8 minutes. (The tops should be done
but not browned.) Remove from oven; transfer to wire rack. Cool
completely, then store in airtight container.
