Cream together the butter, powdered sugar, salt and vanilla. Add the flour and mix until combined. Shape into balls using about a tablespoon of dough. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet and press the center with your thumb to make an indentation. Bake for 15 minutes or until the bottom edge of the cookies just begin to turn golden. Allow to cool completely on a wire rack.
