How to Make Rich Butter Cookies

• Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a baking sheet.
• Mix 1 tbsp of egg yolk with the milk for glaze and set aside.
• Mix the remaining eggs, sugar and butter and beat them until smooth and creamy.
• Sift the flour and salt into a large bowl.
• Make a well and pour the egg mixture and blend to form a sticky dough.
• In a well-floured surface, roll out the dough into 1/3 inch thickness and cut into circles using 3 inch cookie cutters.
• If you are having trouble rolling it out, then divide the dough into small portions, pat them out with your fingertips to the desired thickness and then cut it using cookie cutters.
• Place them on the baking sheet and brush with the egg glaze.
• You can make patterns on top and bake them as they are for about 15-20 minutes until golden. Cool completely.
