Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 F.

4. Cream the butter and sugar till light and fluffy. Beat in the vanilla and milk.
5. Add the flour mix to the creamed butter and fold till combined. Do not overmix or you will activate gluten toughening the cookies.
6. Roll the dough out to desired thickness but not too thin.I roll the dough out between two pieces of parchment paper. And then place the rolled out dough in the refrigerator to chill before stamping the shape out. Place on baking sheet.
7. Bake about 8-10 minutes. Do not over bake else they would become very crunchy.
8. Let cool on the tray for 1-2 minutes till cool enough to handle. Transfer to wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!

• DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven to 350°F
2. Combine butter and sugar in a bowl, and mix until it gets lighter and fluffier. (Either microwave the butter for about 45 seconds or make sure it's soft enough to whisk).
3. Add vanilla and milk to butter/sugar mixture. (You can be flexible with the amount of vanilla you use).
4. Combine salt, flour and baking powder in a separate bowl.
5. Combine the dry and wet ingredients, using either a spatula or your hands. (Dough should be a little bit sticky at this point).
6. Add extra flour as needed until dough becomes less sticky (I used about 3 T.) You don't want dough to be too tough or sticky.
7. Form 12 equal-sized balls, flatten to about 1/2 - 2/3 inch in thickness. Coat one side with sugar. (Lay about 1/8 Cup sugar on flat surface and lay each flattened ball of dough on it, pressing gently).
8. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until bottom is lightly golden.
