Method : How to make

1. Preheat an oven to 190 degrees and line 2 baking trays with baking paper.

2. Mix butter and sugar well then beat in the egg yolk and vanilla.

3. Sift the flour and a pinch of salt into the mixture and stir until thoroughly combined.

4. Scoop tablespoons of the mixture and shape into balls. Put them on the prepared baking sheets and space well apart and flatten slightly.

5. Bake for 12-15 minutes. Leave to cool on the baking sheets for 5-10 before transferring them onto a wire rack.
