Preheat oven to 350F.
Place a sheet of parchment paper on a baking sheet.
Grate the dough. You will need to do a few batches. The grated dough should be spread evenly on the baking sheet without layering.
Bake for 10 minutes, and check them while baking so they don’t burn.

Dust with powdered sugar (optional).
1 Tbsp powdered sugar
Give them time to set, then enjoy!
