Method
    
    
        - preheat oven to 160C fan forced
- soften butter
- add butter to mix master on slow, add sugar and mix until combined
- gradually increase speed to about 1/2 maximum speed and beat until fluffy and turns almost white
- sift in flour a little at a time until it just starts to come together as a dough
- flour a board and rolling pin generiously and roll out 1/2 the mixture to about 6mm
- cut out cookies and place on greased cookie trays allowing plenty of space around each cookie
- add more dough to cuttings and roll out again
- bake cookies 15-20 minutes depending on size until just starting to change colour at edges, or just before
- cool on racks
Notes
    cookies will harden as they cool
the last bit of dough is really hard to work - discard
