Step by Step Method

Step 1

In medium bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt and set aside.

Step 2

In a large bowl, cream together butter and vanilla, then add sugar.

Step 3

Cream together then add eggs one at a time.

Step 4

Beat mixture for 1-2 minutes until light and frothy.

Step 5

Pour the flour mixture into the egg mixture and stir until flour is completely mixed in.

Step 6

The dough should be soft but not sticky.

Step 7

If it seems too wet, add more flour a tablespoon or so at a time until the right consistency.

Step 8

Wrap the dough in wax paper and let chill in the fridge for 2+ hours.

Step 9

Preheat the oven to 400 F and grease 2 large baking sheets.

Step 10

On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to 1/8” and cut out cookies using a round cookie cutter.

Step 11

Place 1” apart on baking sheet and bake 7-9 minutes.

Step 12

(If you want softer cookies, bake 7-9 minutes, until the edges are just browned. If you want them to be more like British crackers, bake 9-12 minutes until very light brown.)
