Preheat the oven to 350 degrees, rack in the middle position.

Roll dough into walnut-sized balls. This dough may be sticky, so roll only enough for the cookies you plan to bake immediately, then return the bowl to the fridge. Roll th enough balls in the sugar and place them on greased cookie sheets. Flatten them with a spatula. Bake for 10 minutes.
