Yummy Butter Cookies
User Submitted Recipe
“
Is a simple butter cookie that can be used in a cookie press, as a drop cookie or made into a roll and sliced. Just be sure to chill it thoroughly so it keeps its shape while baking."
Ingredients
1 c butter
1 c white sugar
1 egg
2 2/3 c all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp salt
2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and white sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg, then stir in the vanilla. Combine the flour and salt. Stir into the sugar mixture. Cover dough, and chill for at least one hour. Chill cookie sheets. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Press dough out onto ungreased, chilled cookie sheets. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden on the edges. Remove from cookie sheets to cool on wire racks.
