Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F
  2. Cream the softened butter, sugar, vanilla and egg well, until everything is combined and fluffy.
  3. Whisk together the dry ingredients in a separate bowl and combine with the sugar mixture.
  4. Form into balls about 1 1/2 inches in diameter and roll in sugar.
  5. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake until they just start to brown around the edges, about 10 minutes.
  6. Let the cookies cool briefly on the baking sheet and then move to a cooling rack. Sprinkle with a little more sugar while hot.

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days. The cookies will soften slightly over time.
