1/2 cup granulated sugar, plus some for dusting
1/2 cup powdered sugar

In a mixer with a paddle, beat the butter about 1 minute, add one ingredient at a time by the list up to flour, mixing on medium until each one is blended in. Stir in the flour, baking soda and salt all at one time with mixer on low. Refrigerate for 1 hour or freeze 15 minutes. Use an ice cream scoop or what ever size cookie scoop to drop the dough on the parchment lined cookie sheet about 2 ” apart. Use the bottom of a sugar dipped glass to press flat to 1/4″ thick. Bake 8 to 10 minutes till light golden. enjoy!
