Take about 1/2 tablespoonful sized scoops of dough and roll into balls, then flatten gently between your hands (buttons should be about 1/4 inch thick and an inch in diameter). Place on parchment paper or Silpat-lined baking sheets and prick them once in the center with a knife or skewer.

Sprinkle with granulated sugar, if using. Bake for about 12-15 minutes, or until the buttons are set and lightly golden around the edges. Remove from oven, let them cool completely and store in an airtight container.
