This recipe came with my electric cookie press, and I keep losing the book when I need it, so I am posting it on here to share the goodness, and to have the recipe handy.
Ingredients:
3 1/2 cups unbleached flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups unsalted butter, cubed and at room temp
1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons pure vanilla extract
1 large egg
Directions:
1. Preheat over to 350.
2. Put the flour and salt into a small mixing bowl and whisk to combine, reserve.
3. 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.
4. Press cookie dough out onto an ungreased/unlined baking pan about 2 inches apart.
5. Bake in preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until lightly golden around the edges.
6. Cool cookies before removing from the pan.
