How To Make Southern Tea Cake Cookies
In a medium sized bowl, whisk together the flour, salt and baking soda and set aside.
In the bowl of your mixer, add butter and sugar and mix together on high speed until fluffy and smooth (about 4-5 minutes).
Turn mixer to medium speed and add in one egg and vanilla extract and beat until well incorporated.
Lastly, turn mixer to slow speed and add in flour mixture in intervals of three beating after each addition to incorporate.
After dough is well mixed, turn off mixer and remove dough from mixer and add to a Ziploc bag and place in your refrigerator for at least one hour to firm up dough.
Once dough is firm, remove from fridge and preheat your oven to 325 degrees.
