Total time:
Serves: 60 cookies
- ¾ cup + 2 tbsp (200 grams) unsalted butter, softened
- ¾ cup + 2 tbsp (100 grams) confectioners' sugar
- 2 cups + 2 tbsp (275 grams) all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- pinch of salt
- ⅛ cup cocoa powder, sifted
- In the bowl of your electric mixer, mix the butter and sugar until fluffy.
- Add the flour, a few tablespoons at a time.
- Add the vanilla extract and salt.
- Using your hands, form a ball.
- Cut the ball in half.
- Add the cocoa powder to one of the halves and knead it into the dough.
- Place both dough balls on a larger plate, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for about 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350 °F (175 °C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place one of the dough balls on a lightly floured surface and roll it out to about ⅛-inch (0.3 cm) thickness.
- Use an ⅕-inch (5 cm) round cutter to cut out round shapes.
- Use a slightly smaller cutter to press it into each cut out round. Press only about halfway through to make a decorative indentation.
- Using a wider straw, cut out buttonholes (use a toothpick or a wooden skewer to remove the dough from the inside of the straw).
- Transfer the rounds onto the lined baking sheet.
- Bake at 350 °F (175 °C) for about 9-10 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Repeat with all the remaining dough.
- Re-roll any scraps and cut out more cookies.
- Enjoy!
