Ingredients
  

  • 250 g butter
  • 200 g sugar
  • pinch of salt
  • vanilla
  • 2 Tbsp. yogurt
  • 400 g flour

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 200°C.
  • Soften the butter in the microwave, until it is soft, but not liquid. Or if your kitchen is warm, leave it on the counter to soften.
  • Mix the butter with the sugar.
  • Add the salt, vanilla and the yogurt.
  • Mix until incorporated and soft.
  • Add the flour, first a few spoons and mix with the spatula or spoon until the dough can be worked by hand.
  • Add the rest of the flour and mix just until flour is absorbed.
  • With the dough, form some balls with the size of a nut, and place them on a cookie sheet, with some space between them.
  • With the back of a measuring cup or a cup, flatten the cookies, and flour the back of the cup in between.
  • Bake for 15-20 min until slightly golden on the edges.
  • Transfer on a cooling rack and leave until completely cooled.
  • Store in an airtight container.
