For best results, use high-quality butter. The flavor really shines through in this simple recipe.
Don't overwork the dough, as this can result in tougher cookies. Mix until just combined.
Chilling the dough is crucial for preventing the cookies from spreading too much during baking.
These cookies are delicious on their own, but feel free to frost them with cream cheese icing, royal icing, or a simple glaze once they are completely cool.
