Moravian Spice Cookies

My dear friend Amy used to live in Winston Salem, NC - and we used to stroll around Old Salem - where they make Moravian Spice Cookies. They were not (vegan but they are vegetarian) and the recipe was quite easy to vegan-ize.
The recipe is here http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Moravian-Spice-Cookies/Detail.aspx - just use Earth Balance instead of butter.
The dough looks sort of dry and crumbly after mixing...
but wrap it and let it rest a bit and it will come together...
I roll mine out between two sheets of plastic wrap - that way I don't have to add any more flour - just roll it out really thin (almost like making lefse - haha)...

and then be careful to bake only until the edges start to brown - they are very thin and crispy - and we got about 70 cookies from this batch...

63 the Man-Cub says - to be exact...
