  1. In a large flat plate or bowl, combine the softened butter, sifted powdered sugar, and a pinch of salt. Mix with a spatula or your hands until the butter becomes creamy.

  1. Gradually add the flour while mixing gently with a spatula or your hands until a smooth dough forms. Avoid over-kneading—test the dough by drawing a line with your fingertip; if it leaves wavy marks, it is ready.
  2. Divide the dough into two equal portions and roll each into a log measuring approximately 30 cm (12 inches) long and 4 cm (1.5 inches) thick.
  3. Wrap each log tightly in plastic wrap, sealing both ends. Place them in the freezer for at least 1 hour to firm up.

  1. Once frozen, remove the plastic wrap. Using a sharp knife, slice the logs into thin rounds (0.5 cm / 0.2 inches thick).
  2. Arrange the cookie slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, ensuring they have space to expand.
  3. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (356°F) for 20 minutes, or until they turn golden brown.
