About this recipe

These classic vanilla butter cookies are made with all-purpose flour, butter, egg, sugar, and vanilla. Butter gives them a distinct buttery flavor and delicate crispness, while vanilla lends a simple, homemade character. Mix the dough only until it comes together so the cookies do not become dense. A balanced ratio of butter to flour and baking just until pale golden are key.

Ingredients

Servings: 12

  • 200 g all-purpose flour

  • 120 g butter

  • 70 g sugar

  • 1 egg

  • a pinch of vanilla

Steps

  1. Cream the softened butter with the sugar, then add the egg and vanilla.

  2. Add the flour and mix briefly, just until a soft dough forms.

  3. Chill the dough for 10–15 minutes if it sticks to your hands.

  4. Shape small cookies, arrange them on a baking sheet, and bake at 175–180°C for 10–15 minutes, until the edges are lightly browned.

  5. Cool the cookies before serving so they become crisp.
