Crisp Butter Cookies (Refrigerator Cookies) - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 cups all-purpose flour
    1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1 cup butter
    1 cup white sugar
    1 egg
Preparation
    Combine flour, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl.
    Beat butter and sugar in a second large bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy; beat in the egg. Gradually blend in the flour mixture until dough is just mixed.
    Divide the dough in half and shape each half into a log 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Wrap logs in waxed paper and chill for 4 hours.
    Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease 2 baking sheets. Cut the logs into 1/4 inch thick slices and place 1 inch apart onto baking sheets.
    Bake in the preheated oven until cookies are lightly colored, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to wire racks to cool.
