For each cookie, shape about 1 tablespoon dough into a ball. Place balls about 4 inches apart on well-greased baking sheets. Generously grease the bottom of a glass or jar (one with a wide, flat base). For each cookie, dip glass in granulated sugar; then press ball of dough to flatten it to a thickness of about ¼ inch.
