Ingredients
1⅓ cups (330 ml) all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons (45 ml) cornstarch
¾ cup (190 ml) butter, softened
¾ cup (190 ml) sugar

Method
1. Heat the oven to 375˚F (190˚C). Line baking sheets with parchment.
2. Whisk flour and cornstarch in a bowl.
3. Beat the butter and the sugar together until smooth, pale and fluffy. Beat in the vanilla.
