Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 340 degrees F / 170 C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • In a stand mixer cream the softened butter and sugar.
  • When the butter mixture is light and fluffy, add the egg and vanilla extract and continue to whisk until well incorporated.
  • Sift the remaining dry ingredients into the bowl with the butter/egg mixture, and stir to form a dough.
  • Scoop out 1 tablespoon size of cookie dough and roll into balls. Place on the prepared tray and allow space for the cookies to spread.
  • Repeat with remaining cookie dough.
  • Using a fork, press down to make a criss-cross pattern on top of each cookie.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes or until lightly golden.
  • Remove and allow to cool completely on a cooling rack.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container in a cool dry place for up to 5 days.
