Ingredients
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 3/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 cups flour
- -
- Melted White Chocolate
- Peppermint flavoring (good for Christmas)

Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
-
In the bowl of a stand mixer, add in butter, sugar, vanilla and flour.
-
Mix slowly until a crumbly dough forms. It will look like crumbs in the stand mixer, but when squeezed together in your hands will hold its shape.
-
Form dough into small balls and slightly flatten and place onto prepared baking sheets.
-
Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the bottoms of the cookies are barely golden brown.
-
Cool.
-
May be dipped into melted chocolate bark, then sprinkles.
-
Store in airtight containers after chocolate sets.
