Butter Cookies

1. 1

   In a sauce pot, add the water, sugar, and butter. Simmer on low heat until the butter is melted and the sugar is dissolved. Let cool for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

2. 2

   In a large bowl, sift the flour, baking powder, and salt together.

3. 3

   While stirring with a wooden spoon, add the melted butter mixture. Work the dough until there are no longer lumps of flour. The dough should be soft to the touch.

4. 4

   Take the dough out and cover it with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 3 hours.

5. 5

   Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius and remove the dough from the refrigerator.

6. 6

   On a lightly floured surface, work the dough with your hands a bit to warm up the butter. It will be difficult at first, but it will get easier. Once softened, roll it out as thinly as possible.

7. 7

   With the help of a cookie cutter, cut the dough and lay the cookies on a baking tray covered with parchment paper.

8. 8

   Bake 12 minutes until golden on the edges.
