Heat oven to 350 degrees. Roll out dough on lightly floured surface to 1/8-inch thickness. Use a round 2-inch cookie cutter to cut out circles from dough. Cut out an inner circle with a smaller round cookie cutter from half of the circles to make a "cookie ring."
Bake circles and rings until light golden, 10 to 12 minutes.
Transfer to wire rack to cool. Spread a small amount of jelly on each whole circle. Press a cookie ring on top of it. Shake the cookies one at a time in a bowl of sugar to coat well. Store in a covered dish.
* Note: Confectioners' sugar can be used to coat the cookies in place of granulated.
