Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a bowl, mix all of the cookie ingredients together with a fork as much as you can, then use your hands. Knead the dough until it forms a soft, smooth ball. Roll out on a lightly floured surface, cut into desired shapes. Bake on parchment paper-covered cookie sheets for 8 minutes for a deliciously soft cookie, or continue baking for a minute or two for more of a crunch. Remove to a wire rack to cool. Eat plain or add glaze.
