Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup (30g) powdered sugar
- 1 tsp (5ml) pure vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp (15ml) whole milk
- 1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour
- 1/4 tsp (1.5g) salt
Instructions:
- Beat the softened butter with granulated sugar and powdered sugar until the mixture is pale, fluffy, and sweet.
- Stir in the vanilla extract and milk. Beat on low speed until the liquid is fully emulsified and the batter looks glossy.
- Sift in the all-purpose flour and salt. Mix on the lowest speed just until the white streaks of flour disappear to avoid overmixing.
- Transfer the dough to a piping bag and pipe 1-inch rounds onto parchment-lined baking sheets, leaving 2 inches of space between each cookie.
- Bake at 325°F (160°C) for 12–15 minutes, until the edges turn a light mahogany color while the centers remain pale.
- Allow the wafers to sit on the hot pan for 5 minutes to set, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
