Ingredients:

  • 1 1/8 cups real butter
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 tbsp heavy cream
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • 3 cups flour

Directions:

  1. Cream the butter, sugar, and salt with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, AT LEAST two minutes.
  2. Add the egg yolks, cream, and vanilla. Mix another two minutes.
  3. Add the flour and mix until incorporated.
  4. Divide the dough into three discs, flatten each, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate until firm.
  5. Roll one disc at a time between two sheets of waxed paper to 1/4 inch thickness, freeze in the paper for 15-30 minutes.
  6. Preheat the oven to 325°F.
  7. Remove one sheet of dough from the freezer, and cut shapes. Reroll the scraps in waxed paper (PLEASE do not add more flour!) and refreeze.
  8. Bake cookies on a parchment-lined cookie sheet for 8-12 minutes until they begin to barely brown around the edges. They will firm up as they cool, I promise!
  9. Remove to racks to cool, then decorate!
