  1. Take butter in a bowl and beat till it is light and fluffy. Add the powdered sugar and beat again till the sugar is incorporated and the mixture looks creamy..
  2. Add the vanilla essence. Add the sifted flour and mix well with a spatula or using your hands to form a dough..
  3. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare a baking tray by dusting with flour. Take a small portion of dough and shape into a flattened ball. You can prick holes on the top or use the back of the fork to press and form a design..
  4. Bake for 15-20 minutes till the edges turn brown. Cool on a wire rack and transfer the to an air tight container when completely cool..

The dough is like my spritz cookies, but with a little milk to make it pipe-able. Make sure it's properly softened to room temperature before beginning. I made the ice box version because it's so quick. Used colored sugar to make them pretty. I really need to find an easy to use cookie press because I'd love to make the spritz version.
