Gram's Butter Cookies

According to my mom, these cookies were brought to a family funeral recently, and the family confirmed, "these are Gram's - just like [we] remembered." Like many of the recipes from our greats and grands, the instructions are minimal, but it's a pretty basic recipe.  I love having a recipe from my great grandma to pass on to my kiddos. Enjoy!

Butter Cookies

Grandma Katherine Hertel

3 sticks of butter
1-1/2 c. granulated sugar
1-1/2 tsp. vanilla
3 c. all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp salt

Mix and form in a loaf.  Refrigerate until it's hard.  Slice loaf in thin pieces.  Bake at 325℉ for about 12 minutes.  Cookies will be very light in color.
