Instructions
- Cream butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Stir in the vanilla extract and then add the eggs, one at a time. Add buttermilk until incorporated.
- Gradually add the flour and baking soda into the creamed butter mixture until just combined.
- Divide the dough in half and wrap well in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for one hour to overnight.
- When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350º. Remove the dough from the refrigerator 15 minutes before rolling out on a lightly floured surface. Cut the dough with cookie cutters and place onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake until lightly browned, about 10 to 12 minutes.
Notes

- To store: These tea cakes keep well on the counter in an airtight container for a few days.
- To freeze: Allow cookies to cool completely, then place them in an airtight container in single layers with parchment between layers. Freeze for up to 3 months. Allow baked cookies to thaw before serving.
