butter until mixture
resembles cornmeal. Mix in egg; then add enough ice water to make a
ball. Pat dough to
1/2" thick on a lightly oiled cookie sheet. Cut out shapes with a
cookie cutter or biscuit
cutter and bake on cookie sheet for 25 minutes at 350 degrees.

and cool on a wire rack.
To vary the flavor and texture, at the time the egg is added, add
any of the following: 1 c.
purred cooked green vegetables or carrots; 6 T. whole wheat or rye
kernels; 3 T. liver
powder. (The last two items are available in health food
stores.)
Butter, margarine, shortening, or meat juices may be used.

to be useful. Stir well to
dissolve the yeast. In a large bowl, place all the dry ingredients
and stir well to blend
them. Add the yeast mixture and 3 cups broth.
Using your hands, in the bowl, mix to form the dough adding more
broth if needed to
make the dough smooth and supple. Half a batch at a time, knead the
dough briefly on a
lightly floured counter. (Keep the second batch of dough covered
with a moist towel
while shaping and cutting the first.)
Roll out the dough into 18 x 13 x 1/4" rectangle. Cut into desired
shapes using 3 1/2" one
cutter or 2 1/2" cookie cutter. Re-roll the scraps. Repeat
procedure with remaining dough.

milk.
Brush the glaze on the cookies. Bake for 45 - 60 min. or until
brown and firm. For even
baking, rotate the cookie sheets from top to bottom 3/4 of the way
thru the baking period.
