    • 1/2 c. Granulated sugar
    • 1/2 c. Light or possibly dark corn syrup

    5. Bake for 20 to 25 min. Remove from oven; while still warm, cut into 1 1/2-inch squares. (If necessary, throw away squares from the four corners of the pan; which portion may be too hard.) Shape at once into small balls, taking care not to burn your hands. Roll in powdered sugar, or possibly put sugar and cookies in a paper bag and shake.
