Ingredients
- 2 sticks butter, softened
- 4 ounces caster sugar (superfine)
- 10 ounces all-purpose flour
- Ground spices, optional
- Finely grated zest of 1 lemon, optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- In a large bowl or in a food mixer, cream the butter until soft. Add the sugar, and beat until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Sift in the flour, and spices, if using, or grated zest, if using, and bring the mixture together to form the dough.
- Using your hands, roll the dough into walnut-size balls, and place them slightly apart on an ungreased baking tray. Flatten the balls slightly with the back of a damp fork, and bake in the oven until they are light golden brown and slightly firm on top, about 13 to 15 minutes.
- Carefully transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool.
