Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup + 1 tablespoon butter softened
  • 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary finely chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • In a large bowl with a hand mixer or in a stand mixer bowl with a paddle attachment, mix on low speed to cream butter and confectioners' sugar.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, rosemary, and salt. Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture just until combined. The dough will be very crumbly.
  • Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface. Using your hands, roll and shape the dough into an 8-inch log. Securely wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours and up to overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place chilled cookie dough on a flat work surface and slice into 1/2-inch rounds. Arrange cookie dough slices onto the prepared baking sheet at least 2 inches apart.
  • Bake for 11 minutes, until the edges are golden brown. Cool for 1 minute on the baking sheet, then transfer to a wire cooling rack to cool completely. Serve at room temperature.
