Preparation
- Step 1
In a large bowl, beat the butter until smooth. Beat in the sugar a little at a time. Beat in the salt. Add the flour in three batches, alternating with additions of ¼ cup of water, stirring well after each addition. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Step 2
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Remove the chilled dough from the refrigerator and use your hands to roll it into very small balls about ½ to ¾ of an inch in diameter. Transfer the cookies to ungreased cookie sheets.
- Step 3
Bake until the bottoms of the cookies just turn golden, about 15 to 20 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.

Easy little cookies. They’re a bit like Nilla wafers in size and shape, but better texture. Good plain cookie with tea.
