  8. Let cool on baking sheet until cool enough to handle, about 5 - 8 minutes. 
  9. Pour remaining 1 1/4 cups (150g) powdered sugar into a small mixing bowl, roll warm cookies one at a time through sugar to coat with a light layer (this layer will seem to melt and get sticky). 
  10. Transfer to cooling rack and let cool completely then roll in powdered sugar once more to cover. Store in an airtight container.
