Yeast Crisps

Put warm water in a small bowl and stir the yeast into the water. Set aside. Mix together margarine, salt and flour. Stir in yeast and water until well blended. Chill for 1 hour. Put the sugar in a small bowl. Form 1-inch diameter balls of dough and roll them in the sugar. Place the balls in a shallow pan and chill for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper. Dust a work surface and rolling pin with a mixture of flour and sugar for rolling out the cookies. One by one, place each ball on the work surface and press it flat with the ball of your hand. Turn it over and press again. This coats the ball with some flour and sugar to keep it from sticking. Roll out the dough very thin, about 1/16 inch or less, or until the dough makes a rectangle about 3”x2”, then cut in half crosswise. Pick up the very thin dough with a sharp wide knife such as a chef’s knife and place it on your prepared cookie sheet. Let rest for 30 seconds then bake for 6-8 minutes or until crisps are golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool one minute. Remove crisps to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Makes about 100 crisps.
