Measure out 1 cup of softened butter and place it in a mixing bowl.

Use a spatula to scrape the butter from the sides of the bowl and gather it into the center of the bowl as needed.
5
While beating, continue moving the bowl in a circular motion to ensure that the butter is evenly mixed.

Add ½ cup of powdered sugar into the bowl.

Measure out 2 cups of all-purpose flour.
11
Grab a strainer and place it on top of the mixing bowl. Gradually pass the flour through the strainer one cup at a time.

Mix flour with the sugar and butter mixture using the beater. Beat gently while scraping from the sides of the bowl to the center until the ingredients are just combined.

Once chilled, open the plastic wrapper and cut the dough into ½-inch slices.

Bake The Cookies
