Ingredients
– 1 cup (227 g) unsalted butter, room temperature
– ½ cup (100 g) granulated sugar
– ¼ teaspoon salt
– 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
– 1 egg
– 2 cups (284 g) all-purpose flour
– Granulated sugar for sprinkling
Instructions
1-Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
2-In a large bowl, beat 1 cup (227 g) of unsalted butter and ½ cup (100 g) of granulated sugar on medium speed until fluffy, about 1 to 2 minutes.
3-Add ¼ teaspoon salt, 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract, and 1 egg; beat for about 1 minute until combined.
4-Reduce the mixer speed to low and gradually add 2 cups (284 g) of all-purpose flour until mostly incorporated, then stir with a rubber spatula to fully combine; the dough will be thick.
5-Transfer the dough to a piping bag fitted with a large open star tip and pipe 2-inch circles onto the prepared baking sheets. Sprinkle with granulated sugar.
6-Bake one sheet at a time for 15 to 17 minutes, until the cookies are lightly golden.
7-Allow cookies to cool completely before serving or storing.
