butter (softened)

sugar sugar

tsp vanilla extract

unbleached, all-purpose flour

tsp salt

Preheat the oven to 400°. Line sheet pans with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

Combine the butter, sugar and vanilla in the bowl of a food processor (or in a mixing bowl with a mixer). Add the flour and salt. Pulse until coarse crumbs forms. Shape the dough into walnut-sized balls, pressing to pack your own snowball cookies.
