Wine Cookies by Nate Bruce

•   3 cups all-purpose flour
•   1 teaspoon baking powder
•   3 tablespoons white sugar

•   1 cup dry red wine
•   1/2 cup vegetable oil
•   1/3 cup granulated sugar for decoration

 

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. In a large bowl combine the flour, baking powder and sugar. Add the wine and oil. Mix with a large fork and then with your hands.
3. Roll small pieces of dough between hands to make "logs" then shape into circles. The circles should be no bigger than the 2 inches in diameter. Roll cookies in extra sugar and place on cookie sheet.
4. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 25 minutes or until slightly brown. After cookies cool they should be hard and crisp.
