Critical Success Points

  • Butter must be softened but still slightly chilled; melted butter will require chilling later.
  • Cream butter and sugar until light and pale – this creates the cookie’s tender texture.
  • Add dry ingredients gradually to allow proper absorption and prevent a dry, tough dough.
  • Roll dough to the correct 1/4‑inch thickness for even baking.
  • Do not over‑bake; watch for a very light golden edge.

Safety Warnings

  • Handle the hot baking sheet with oven mitts to avoid burns.
  • Raw egg carries a risk of salmonella; ensure eggs are fresh and consider using pasteurized eggs.
  • Use caution when operating the electric mixer – keep fingers away from the beaters.
