  • 300 grams all purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp cream of tartar

  • Heat oven 190 C/375F. In a stand mixer add butter, icing sugar and 1/2 cup sugar into bowl. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until creamy.
  • Add egg and vanilla, continue beating until well mixed. Reduce speed to low, add flour, cream of tartar and baking soda. Beat until dough forms a ball.
  • Divide in half, roll out onto a floured board and roll to 1/4 inch thickness, cut out into shapes or use cookie cutters.
