1 cup powdered sugar

Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and powdered sugar until smooth and fluffy. Gradually add the flour, mixing until a soft dough forms.

Roll the dough into small balls, about 2.5 cm (1 inch) in diameter, and place them 5 cm (2 inches) apart on the prepared baking sheets. Flatten each ball slightly with the back of a fork or the bottom of a glass to create a decorative pattern.
