Ingredients:
- 1 cup butter, softened and slightly melted
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
Directions:
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Make the dough: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and powdered sugar until smooth and fluffy. Gradually add the flour, mixing until a soft dough forms.
- Shape the cookies: Roll the dough into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter, and place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Flatten each ball slightly with the back of a fork or the bottom of a glass to create a decorative pattern.
- Bake: Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
