Christmas Dough Art (Microwave)

• 4 c All-purpose flour
• 1 c Salt
• 1 1/2 c Hot water*
• *Instant coffee added to water gives dough "browned" color.

Knead dough 6 - 8 minutes. Roll out dough and cut with cookie cutters into desired shapes. Place on wax paper on glass tray; with a toothpick, make several holes in each piece to let air escape, then microwave on high for about 2 minutes. Time will vary according to size of "cookies." When baked, allow to cool before decorating.
