Ingredients
Scale
- 1 and ½ Cups room temperature butter (salted)
- ¾ Cup confectioners' sugar
- 2 and ¼ Cups all-purpose flour
- ¾ Cup cornstarch
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract (optional)
- ¼ Cup sprinkles (optional)

- Place balls on a prepared baking sheet about 1-2 inches apart.
- Use a fork to gently flatten each cookie.

Notes
Ensure the butter is softened but not overly soft to prevent cookies from spreading too much. Chilling the dough for a couple of hours can enhance the texture and taste.
