Danish Butter Cookies

Ingredients:

230 g butter at room temperature
100 g powdered sugar
2 teaspoon vanilla extract
250 g flour

Instructions:

Get the butter out of the refrigerator at least an hour before baking.
Cream the butter, sugar and vanilla extract for 5 to 8 minutes until light in color and fluffy in texture.

Sift the flour, folding it gently into the creamed butter mixture, until you have used up all the flour.
Transfer the dough to a sheet of plastic wrap and roll it to form a log. Cut a hole in one end of the plastic wrap and place it into a piping bag fitted with a flower tipped nozzle.

Pipe the dough onto a baking sheet lined with baking paper. Or you can simply roll out small portions of dough and press down using a fork. Refrigerate the shaped dough for 30 minutes before baking.

Sprinkle sugar over the cookies before baking if preferred.

Bake in a preheated oven of 160°C for 15 minutes, until the edges begin to turn a golden color.
