Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Roll out dough on lightly floured surface to 1/8-inch thickness. Use a round 2-inch cookie cutter to cut out circles from dough. Cut out an inner circle with a smaller round cookie cutter from half of the circles to make a "cookie ring". 3. Bake circles and rings until light golden, 10 to 12 minutes.
