Homemade Butter Cookies 

INGREDIENTS:

 1 cup unsalted butter(room temperature)

 1/2 cup granulated sugar

 1/4 teaspoon salt

 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

 1 egg

 2 cups all-purpose flour

 Granulated sugar(for sprinkling)

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheeting with Silicone baking mats or parchment paper .

2. Beat the butter and sugar on medium speed until combined and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the salt, vanilla and egg, and beat until combined, about 

2 minutes. Reduce the speed to low and gradually add the flour until mostly combined. Give a final few stirs with a rubber spatula to ensure the flour is totally incorporated (the dough will be thick).

3. Transfer the dough to a decorating bag fitted with a large open star tip. Pipe the dough into 1-inch circles or 2-inch circles on the parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Sprinkle with sugar.

4. Bake, until light golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Allow to cool completely before storing or serving. Enjoy with your family and friends.
