Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup Unsalted butter, softened Make sure your butter is at room temperature for best results.
  • 1/2 cup Powdered sugar This keeps the cookies light and sweet.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract Adds warmth to every bite.
  • 2 cups All-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup Cornstarch Makes the cookies tender and melt-in-your-mouth delicious.
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt Enhances the flavors.
  • Additional powdered sugar for dusting Adds sweetness and a beautiful finish.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • In a big mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and powdered sugar until it's light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
  • Mix in the vanilla extract.
  • In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, and salt.
  • Slowly add the dry ingredients to your butter mixture and mix until just combined.
  • Shape the dough into small balls, about the size of a walnut.
  • Place the cookie balls on a lined baking sheet, leaving some space between them.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the bottoms are just lightly golden.
  • Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Once cooled, dust the cookies with additional powdered sugar.

Notes

For perfect results, use softened butter, avoid overmixing the dough, and chill it if too warm before shaping. Dusting with powdered sugar adds a delightful touch.
