Simple Butter Cookies

Ingredients
1 cup unsalted butter
2 and 2/3 cup all purpose flour
1 cup sugar
2 teaspoon vanilla
0.25 teaspoon salt
1 egg

Cream together softened butter and sugar until fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla. Add the flour and salt and stir (dont beat). Knead the dough. Make a cylinder with the dough of an shape (I made a rectangle), and wrap plastic wrap. Put in freezer for 15 minutes.

Preheat oven to 400 F. Take an ungreased cookie sheet.Take out the chilled dough and slice about 0.4 cm thick. Place one sheet slightly spaced apart. Bake for 8-9 minutes, until edges are golden. Take out and cool, preferably on a wire rack.

Cookies will be slightly soft, will become crispier as it cools.

If you want to add chocolate, melt some chocolate (milk/dark/white). You can melt in a bowl in the microwave. Stir every 10 seconds for about 40 seconds. Spoon some melted chocolate on the cookie and cool. If you're in a hurry, pop it in the freezer for a few minutes.
