Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 340°F (170°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. Beat the softened butter, vanilla extract and powdered sugar on medium speed for 2–3 minutes, until light, creamy and fluffy.
3. Sift the flour, cornstarch and salt together. Add to the butter mixture in two additions, mixing on low speed until just combined. The dough should be soft but not sticky; do not overmix.
4. Fill a piping bag fitted with a large open star tip. Pipe 2-inch (5 cm) rosettes or circles onto the lined sheets, spaced apart.
5. Refrigerate the piped cookies for 20–30 minutes.
6. Bake one sheet at a time for 12–15 minutes, until the edges are just lightly golden.
7. Let the cookies cool completely on the pan or on a wire rack.
