Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup butter
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1 7/8 cup flour

Instructions
 

  • Cream butter add sugar gradually.
  • Beat in eggs add vanilla.
  • Stir in flour and salt, then chill for an hour.
  • Press dough into molds as thinly as is workable (I usually do a single test cookie my first batch)
  • Bake at 350 F for 12-15 minutes until lightly browned (Mine are a little too light)
  • Let cool for a minute in the tart shells then turn upside down and tap gently to encourage them to pop out. For stubborn cookies, you can insert the end of a thin knife blade between the cookie and the mold and they should release

Notes

Mold sizes will vary some which will affect your yield and calorie count.
