📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
2
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar together on medium speed, 2 to ⏱️ 3 minutes. Use a rubber spatula to scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl. Sift in the flour and cornstarch. Mix on low speed until just combined. (If the mixture seems excessively dry, cut in 1 more tablespoon of butter—but only if you really need it.)
3
Form the dough into a disc, wrap it in plastic, and refrigerate for ⏱️ 20 minutes.
4
On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to ¼ - to ⅓-inch thickness. Cut out cookies using a floured 2-inch round cookie cutter. Place on the prepared baking sheets and bake until the edges have the faintest golden tinge (the cookies should not brown), about ⏱️ 20 minutes. Check your oven sooner if it runs hot.
