Equipment

• A conventional oven is used. When using a convection oven (with air fan) decrease the temperature with 30 °F / 20 °C

Ingredients

• 200 grams self-rising flour
• ⅛ teaspoon salt
• 1 egg size L, beaten
• 225 grams sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 125 grams butter unsalted + 1 tablespoon melted butter
• 3 tablespoons cane sugar

Metric - US Customary

Ingredients you need per step are listed below the step in Italic

Instructions

• In a bowl mix the self-rising flour and salt.
• In a second bowl mix the butter until it is fluffy.
• Then you add, spoon by spoon, sugar to the second bowl.
• Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix for about 3 minutes.
• Add the flour, mix until it's incorporated and put the dish in the fridge so the dough becomes firmer (and less sticky).
• After about fifteen minutes, the dough is solid enough to form a roll with a 2 inch (5 cm) diameter.
• Sprinkle the cane sugar over the surface and roll the dough through it. The ends need not be sweetened.
• Wrap the dough in plastic and let it rest for at least half an hour in the refrigerator.
• By the end of the rest period, preheat your oven to 355 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius).
• Butter a baking sheet with the melted butter.
• Cut the roll of dough into slices of about 5 mm.
• Lay the slices about 4 inches (10 cm) apart on the baking sheet. If you have leftovers, put them in the fridge, so it becomes not too soft.
• Put the baking sheet in the oven and bake for about 13 minutes until the edges are a bit brown.
• Let rest for 5 minutes before you take them from the baking sheet and continue to cool the cookies on a rack (so they harden a bit before the transfer).
• If you still have some dough left, grease your baking sheet again and repeat the steps as described above.
