Prep Time15 minsCook Time10 minsTotal Time25 mins
Ingredients
 80 Butter
 70 Sugar
 2 Egg yolk
 160 Flour
 1 vanilla extract
Directions
1

Take the butter out at least 1 hour before starting the preparation so that it is very soft and easy to work with. In a bowl, cream the butter with the sugar. Add the egg yolks and vanilla, and mix well.

2

Gradually incorporate the flour and work the dough until it is smooth. Shape it into a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap, and let it rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

3

Preheat the oven to 180°C. Roll out the dough to a nice thickness (about 1/2 cm) so that it cooks without burning...

4

Using cookie cutters, cut out your cookies and arrange them on a sheet of parchment paper placed on a baking tray.

5

Cook for 10 minutes while keeping a close eye, as they quickly go from barely cooked to overcooked!

6

The dough is very crumbly when it comes out of the oven, so it's best to leave the cookies on the sheet to cool or to lift them with a flat spatula and place them on a cooling rack.

7

You can, if you wish, melt some chocolate and use it to decorate your cookies or dip them directly into the melted chocolate...

8

These small cookies keep perfectly for several days in a tin.
