Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the Oven:
Set the oven's temperature to 350°F (175°C). Lay parchment paper on a baking pan and place it aside.
Step 2
Cream the Butter and Sugars:
Put the softened butter, powdered sugar, and granulated sugar in a big mixing bowl. Beat the mixture for two to three minutes, or until it is light and fluffy, using an electric mixer or a hand whisk.
Step 3
Add Egg Yolk and Vanilla:
Add the egg yolk and vanilla extract to the butter mixture if you're using one. Stir until thoroughly blended.
Step 4
Add Dry Ingredients:
Slowly combine the butter mixture with the flour and salt. Until the dough comes together, mix on low speed. Take care not to mix too much.
Step 5
Form the Cookies, there are two methods to form the cookies:
Roll and Cut: On a surface dusted with flour, roll out the dough to a thickness of approximately 1/4 inch. Cut out shapes with cookie cutters.
Pipe: To create a more conventional appearance, pipe the dough into tiny swirls or rosettes using a piping bag with a star tip.
Step 6
Decorate:
For a festive look, you can add sprinkles or dust the cookies with powdered sugar.
Step 7
Bake:
Arrange the cookies on the baking sheet that has been prepared, allowing a gap of roughly 1 inch between them. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to turn brown, in a preheated oven.
Step 8
Cool:
Take the cookies out of the oven, allow them to cool on the baking sheet for five minutes, and then move them to a cooling rack to finish cooling.
