Preparation

Step 1

In a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed, beat together butter and sugar. Add egg, vanilla, and salt; beat until smooth. Stir in flour and knead lightly until a soft dough forms. Divide dough in half, then wrap each half in wax paper to form a cylinder about 1-1/2" in diameter.

Refrigerate dough until firm, about 2 hours.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat baking sheets with cooking spray. Cut dough into 1/4-inch slices and arrange on baking sheets.

Bake 12 to 15 minutes, or until light golden. Remove from baking sheets and place on wire rack to cool.
