Ingredients (scaled)

12 servings

Directions

Line cookie sheet with parchment paper.

In a medium sized bowl, whisk together the flour, salt and baking soda and set aside.

In the bowl of your mixer, add butter and sugar and mix together on high speed until fluffy and smooth (about 4-5 minutes).

Turn mixer to medium speed and add in one egg and vanilla extract and beat until well incorporated.

Lastly, turn mixer to slow speed and add in flour mixture in intervals of three beating after each addition just till incorporated

Remove dough from mixer and add to a ziploc bag and place in your refrigerator for at least one hour to firm up dough.

Preheat oven to 340 F (Regular not convection). Remove dough from fridge.

Using #50 disher (rounded tablespoon), scoop out cookie dough and roll into a ball. Using your thumb, gently press the center to flatten a bit and place on the tray 1-1/2 apart

Bake for 11-12 minutes until slight golden brown on the edges and remove from the oven. Dont overcook.

Cool for 5-10 minutes and serve.

Note: Made for 2021 Thanksgiving. Pretty boring but maybe good with tea (duh) or coffee. Perhaps a lemon icing drizzle?
