Ingredients

• 1 cup Unsalted butter
• 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup Cornstarch
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Powdered sugar (for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy using a hand or stand mixer (about 2-3 minutes).

Step 3

Add the vanilla extract to the butter mixture and mix until fully incorporated.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, and salt to combine.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft, slightly crumbly dough forms. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Portion the dough into 1-inch balls (about 1 tablespoon each) and place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 1-2 inches of space between each ball.

Step 7

Using the palm of your hand or the bottom of a glass, gently flatten each ball to form a disk about 1/2 inch thick.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges just begin to turn golden. Avoid overbaking to keep the cookies tender.

Step 9

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Once cool, dust the Dulcitas generously with powdered sugar before serving or storing in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
