Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

  2. Add the vanilla extract to the butter mixture and mix until well combined.

  3. Sift the flour and salt together in a separate bowl, then gradually add this dry mixture to the butter mixture. Mix until a soft dough forms.

  4. Divide the dough in half and shape each portion into a log about 2 inches in diameter. Wrap each log tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until firm.

  5. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  6. Unwrap the chilled cookie dough logs and slice them into 1/4-inch rounds. Place the cookie rounds on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 1 inch apart.

  7. Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Be careful not to overbake.

  8. Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
