Ingredients
2 cup all purpose flour
1½ tsp baking powder
1 pinch salt
1 cup butter, (softened)
¾ cup granulated sugar
1 egg, large (room temperature)
1 tsp vanilla
Preparation
In a medium bowl sift the flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl on medium speed beat the butter and sugar until creamy approximately 3 minutes, then add the egg and vanilla and combine. Add the sifted flour mixture a little at a time until combined.
Place the dough on a lightly floured flat surface and gently form into a ball (do not over knead). Wrap the dough in plastic and refrigerate for one hour.
Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.
Place the dough on a lightly floured flat surface and roll to a little thicker than ⅛ inch thick.
Place on cookie sheets and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until edges or lightly golden. Let cool 5 to 8 minutes then move to cookie rack to cool completely, before serving.
Dust with powdered sugar if desired. Enjoy!
