Description - Step 1

Prepare the base cookie dough

Take the softened butter in a large mixing bowl. Using a cake mixer or an electric hand whisk, whisk the butter for 30 seconds until light and creamy. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the whipped butter. Continue whisking for 2-3 minutes until the mixture becomes pale in colour and forms stiff peaks. Sift in the refined flour gradually to avoid lumps. Using a spatula, cut and fold the flour into the butter mixture until just combined. Add the milk and fold until you have a smooth dough.
