Classic butter cookies with a delicate vanilla flavor and a tender, melt-in-your-mouth texture. This simple recipe can be finished with a dusting of powdered sugar or dipped in chocolate, making it a tea-time favorite.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Cream the butter and sugar

6 min

Beat the softened butter and powdered sugar until pale and creamy. Add the egg and vanilla and mix.

2

Make the dough

4 min

Gradually add the flour until you have a soft dough that can pass through a piping bag.

3

Shape the cookies

5 min

Transfer the dough to a piping bag and pipe rosettes or sticks onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Alternatively, roll and flatten portions by hand.

4

Bake

18 min

Bake in an oven preheated to 170°C / 340°F for about 18 minutes, until the edges are lightly browned. The tops should remain pale; only the bottoms and edges should take on color. Remove once cooled slightly.

Reminder

Butter that is very soft and at room temperature makes a creamy dough. Contains wheat (gluten), egg, and milk (butter). Store the cookies in an airtight container; they stay fresh for up to 1 week.

Tuz-şeker dengesi bende tam oturmadı, kişisel damak zevkine göre değişir. Herkes bayıldı diyor ama bende beklediğim tat çıkmadı.

İlk denemede tuzunu kaçırdım, ikinci seferde daha dikkatli oldum. Hamur bir türlü toparlanmadı, un eklemek zorunda kaldım.

Üzerine hangi sosu önerirsiniz? Bu miktar kaç kişilik oluyor, biraz belirsiz kaldı?
