Ingredients
  • ¾ cup + 2 tbsp (200 grams) unsalted butter, softened
  • ¾ cup + 2 tbps (100 grams) confectioners' sugar
  • 2 cups + 2 tbsp (275 grams) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • pinch of salt
  • caster sugar for garnish (optional)
Instructions
  1. In the bowl of your electric mixer, mix butter and sugar until fluffy.
  2. Add the flour, a few tablespoons at a time.
  3. Add the vanilla extract and salt.
  4. Using your hands, form a ball.
  5. Place the dough ball in a medium bowl, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 1 hour.
  6. Preheat the oven to 350 °F (175 °C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  7. Place the dough on a lightly floured surface and roll it out to about 0.2-inch (0.5 cm) thickness.
  8. Use an 8-inch (20 cm) round cutter or a bowl to cut out a round shape.
  9. Place a 6-inch (15 cm) cutter or a bowl over the cut out round and lightly press it into the dough just to trace its edges.
  10. Using a wooden skewer, make dots in the center of the inner round.
  11. Using a knife, make dents around the larger round's edge.
  12. Using a pizza cutter or a knife, cut the whole round into 6 triangles.
  13. Transfer the triangles onto the lined baking sheet.
  14. Sprinkle each triangle with caster sugar (optional).
  15. Bake at 350 °F (175 °C) for about 15 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  16. Tip: Re-roll any scraps of dough and cut out smaller shapes. Bake at 350 °F (175 °C) until the edges are lightly golden brown.
