Ingredients
  

  • ½ cup butter melted
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 eggs slightly beaten
  • 2 cups flour plus extra for rolling out
  • dash salt

Instructions
 

  • Beat butter, sugar, and vanilla together in a large bowl for about 2 minutes or until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs until well combined
  • In a smaller bowl, stir together flour and salt. Stir this into the wet ingredients. If the dough is really sticky, add in more flour. Let this mixture chill for about 20 minutes.
  • After the 20 minutes of chilling, roll out the dough onto a floured surface using a rolling pin until it is about ¼ of an inch thick. Cut the dough using whatever cookie cutters you desire. Place cookie dough shapes on a sprayed baking sheet.
  • Bake the cookies at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for about 8-10 minutes.

Notes

Baking note: Everyone's oven is different, so I recommend setting the timer for 8 minutes for the bake time and going from there. To me, it is best to have these sugar cookies underdone and able to cook for a few extra minutes longer if needed after checking them the first time versus set the buzzer too high and have to take them out burned. Once they are burned, there is no going back.
