Easy Classic Butter Cookies

🧂 Ingredients

• 1 cup + 1 tablespoons all purpose flour

  (135 grams)
• 1 pinch salt*
• ¼ teaspoon baking powder
• ½ cup butter (soft)
• ½ cup icing/powdered sugar (sifted)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

• 1 In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, salt and baking powder, set aside.
• 2 In the mixer beat the sugar and butter until creamy, approximately 3 minutes.
  Beat in the vanilla, add the whisked flour in 2 additions, beat on low until it
  forms a dough. If the dough is very soft, refrigerate for 15-20 minutes.
• 3 Roll into 1 inch balls. Place on parchment paper lined cookie sheets, leaving 2
  ½ inches between each, flatten lightly with a fork (dip in flour so it doesn't
  stick to the dough). Refrigerate the dough while the oven is pre-heating 20
  minutes.
• 4 Pre-heat oven to 350F (180C).
• 5 Bake for 10-12 minutes or until lightly golden on the edges. Leave on cookie
  sheet for 5 minutes then move to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
