Equipment

Ingredients
- 1 cup butter softened
- 1 whole egg
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup unbleached all purpose flour
- ½ cup corn meal
- ¼-1/2 cup corn flour (use approximately ¼ cup if using all purpose flour, use approximately ½ cup if using gluten free flour blend)
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Lightly grease a cookie sheet or line it with parchment paper, then set aside.
- Cream Butter and Sugar: In a mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar on medium speed for 2-3 minutes, until the mixture is light and fluffy. Turn off the mixer, scrape down the sides of the bowl, and set the mixer to low speed.
