Ingredients:

  • 4 cups (480g) flour, sifted

  • 1/3 cup (40g) corn starch

  • 3/4 tsp (4g )salt

  • 1 cup (227g) unsalted butter

  • 1 cup (200g) sugar

  • 2 eggs

  • 1 tsp (5mL) vanilla extract

Instructions:

  1. Sift the flour, corn starch, and salt in a large bowl. Give it a whisk.

  2. In a standing mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar together.

  3. Add the eggs while mixing. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.

  4. Add the vanilla extract.

  5. Pour in the flour mixture and mix until everything is well incorporated.

  6. Put the dough in a plastic bag, flatten it together, then chill it in the refrigerator so it firms up.

  7. Once the dough is chilled, place it on a rolling mat, sprinkle it with flour, and roll it out with a rolling pin. Move the dough around to prevent it from sticking.

  8. Use a cookie cutter to shape and cut out your cookies. Remove scraps and re-roll to create more.

  9. Place the cookies on a non-stick baking sheet and bake at 375°F for 12 minutes.
