Easy Butter Cookies
The number one mistake that people always make when creaming butter is using overly warm butter. Aim to start creaming when the butter hits a temperature of 15°C so that by the end of the process, your butter is still cold enough to hold in air that makes these butter cookies have that unmistakable crunch!

Instructions
-
In an electric mixer with a paddle attachment, start by mixing butter, sugar and salt until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Scrape the bowl halfway through this creaming process.
-
Then, add in vanilla, then yolks, one at a time. Beat the mixture until homogenous between each addition of egg yolks.
-
Add in flour and mix until just combined. Scrape down the bowl during beating. Then add in milk at the end, to loosen up the mixture a little so that it becomes manageable to pipe.
-
You can fill it into a cookie press or pipe with a star nozzle using a piping bag.
-
Pipe cookies onto a parchment lined trays. Chop the glacé cherries into small dices and place one small piece onto each cookie, and bake at 175°C for around 15 minutes, or until golden brown.
-
And there you have it - super simple and delicious butter cookies. Please enjoy!
