Flavorings to try (not all at once)

GENERAL COOKIE HINTS:
Use parchment paper, good insulated cookie sheets, metal cookie cutters, and chilled dough.
Roll dough out on parchment paper, cut out shapes, remove scraps and put entire paper on cookie sheet with cookies remaining on the parchment.
Cookie presses make uniform fast cooking cookies even with
soft doughs, don't use parchment paper with this method because the dough NEEDS to stick to the cookie sheet.
