Instructions
 

The Dough

  1. In a mixing bowl, sift together the 280 g all-purpose flour and 1/4 tsp. salt.
  2. In another large mixing bowl, use a hand mixer to beat the softened 227 g unsalted butter and 60 g powdered sugar for 5-6 minutes, until the mixture is pale, light, and fluffy.
  3. Add the 1 egg and 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract to the bowl. Beat for a few more seconds until just combined and smooth.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in a few stages. Mix with a spatula or your fingertips until the dough comes together. Do not overmix. The dough will be soft.
  5. Shape the dough into a disc, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to chill and firm up.

The Baking

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough to a thickness of about 2-3 mm.

  5. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
    Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Be gentle, as they are fragile when warm.
