Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a bowl, mash the butter and flour together until smooth and creamy. Beat in the cream, 1 to 2 tablespoons at a time, until thoroughly combined.

Step 3

Scrape the dough onto a large sheet of plastic wrap, wrap tightly, and chill at least 1 hour to overnight.

Step 4

Roll the dough out 1/4 inch thick on a floured work surface, and cut into 2-inch circles with a cutter. Place sugar into a shallow bowl, and dip each cookie into the sugar on both sides. Place the cookies onto the prepared baking sheets.

Step 5

Bake cookies in the preheated oven until the edges turn light golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Allow to cool for about 5 minutes on sheets before removing to cool completely on racks.
