Ingredients
- 1 cup softened butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 1/2 cups flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
Instructions
Mix together softened butter, sugar and vanilla. Stir flour and salt together; then add to butter mixture. Stir until thick; then mix with hands because of stiffness. Place on wax paper and shape into a long roll. Wrap with wax paper and refrigerate until very firm - several hours or overnight. Cut in thin slices (1/8 inch thick.) Place about 1 inch apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 400 degrees until slightly brown (about 8-10 minutes)
