Directions: |
Directions:Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Place softened butter in a medium size mixing bowl. Stir with a wooden spool or sturdy spatula until nice and smooth. Add sugar and vanilla. Mix together by hand for about 1 minute until fluffy and well blended. Add the flour and cornstarch. Stir until flour is incorporated and the dough is shaggy. Turn onto a lightly floured surface and press dough into a ball. Knead a few times until fairly smooth then form into a ball again and press into a flat disk. Roll out on floured surface to 3/8" thick. Keep work surface, dough and rolling pin lightly floured. Cut desired shapes and place on prepared pans. Re-roll scraps as many times as needed to use up dough. Place the cutouts in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or up to 24 hours. When ready to bake Preheat oven to 350º. Remove cookies from refrigerator and bake for 12-16 minutes or until just beginning to turn golden at the edges. Rotate pans halfway through for even browning. Cool completely before icing. |
