Step 1
Preheat the oven to 300F degrees and line cookie sheets with parchment paper or baking mats (like silpat)
Step 2
In a large bowl beat the butter and powdered sugar until very fluffy and aerated (at least 5 minutes, but you should do 7)!
Step 3
Mix in the flour, cornstarch, salt and vanilla extract.
Step 4
Dust your hands with cornstarch, then form the dough into balls about 2 teaspoons in size.
Step 5
I then pressed that down and used a cookie cutter for a fun shape. (OPTIONAL)
Step 6
Quicker method is to take those balls and press slightly down with a fork to flatten slightly. I preferred this, but it does take a lot of time.
Step 7
Bake for 12-16 minutes, or until the tops look set. They will not look brown. The smaller and flatter you make your cookies, the less time to bake.
Step 8
Add optional granulated sugar or sprinkles to top.
