1 cup butter
1/2 cup confectioners’ sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and the sugar. Slowly add the flour and salt, mixing well. Roll out dough with a rolling pin until it is 1/4 inch thick. Cut into desired shapes using cookie cutters. Place on cookie sheet and prick with a fork.

Bake for 5 to 8 minutes or until light brown at the edges. (This is what the recipe says, but I had to bake almost 30 minutes to get them to be a bit crispy. 5 - 8 minutes leaves them REALLY doughy and gross.)
