Cookie Instructions:

In medium-size bowl, cream butter or margarine until it is soft, gradually adding sugar, creaming after each addition, until it is light and fluffy.

Beat in eggs and vanilla; sift in flour and salt; blend well to make a stiff dough.

Chill 2 to 3 hours, or until firm enough to roll out easily.

When rolling out dough, use flour frequently and generously (to prevent sticking).

Place cookies on ungreased pan at 350°.
