Ingredients:

Serving

3 1/2 cups unbleached flour
1/2 tsp salt
2 cups unsalted butter, cubed and at room temp
1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
2 tbsp pure vanilla extract
1 large egg

Directions:

Preheat over to 350.
Put the flour and salt into a small mixing bowl and whisk to combine, reserve.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the butter and sugar. Using a mixer, mix until light and creamy. Add the vanilla and egg; mix until combined. Add the reserved dry ingredients and mix on low until just combined.
Press cookie dough out onto an ungreased/unlined baking pan about 2 inches apart.
Bake in preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until lightly golden around the edges.
Cool cookies before removing from the pan.
