in yeast. Blend dry ingredients; mix in until dough is soft and can
be handled easily for rolling. Divide in half. Roll out both halves
1/3" thick on floured board. Cut with Christmas cookie cutters (star,
bell, tree, etc.) Fry in deep fat heated to 375 F until brown. Drain
on absorbent paper. Serve plain, sugared or glazed.
