Notes
Please note that you do need to let these cornstarch cookies cool for at least 1-2 minutes before dipping the top in granulated sugar - or they will fall apart! Be very gentle when doing this because they are EXTREMELY soft and I broke ½ of my first batch of these cookies by doing it too soon! But don't wait too long because they need to be slightly warm for the granulated sugar to stick!
