1 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1 egg, unbeaten
2 2/3 cups flour

Using an electric mixer at medium speed, cream together butter and sugar, adding sugar gradually. While mixing, add egg, sprinkle in salt and vanilla. Beat well to combine.

Stir in flour and mix only until flour is incorporated - do not over mix.

Dough may be chilled 2-3 hours and used as a roll dough or used as spritz dough and put through a hand cookie press.

Note: Electric cookie presses sometimes require a soft consistency - check your instructions first.

Place on ungreased cookie sheets, sprinkle with sugar, and bake in a pre-heated 375F degree oven and bake 10 minutes or until edges are golden.

Remove to wire rack and allow to cool.
