INGREDIENTS
3/4 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla or almond extract
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup cornmeal
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp sea salt
Optional: 1/2 cup raisins, dried currants, or dried cranberries
DIRECTIONS
Beat butter and sugar together in a large bowl until creamy. Add egg and vanilla or almond extract and beat until smooth.
In a separate bowl, stir together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add to butter mixture, stirring to combine thoroughly. Stir in the optional raisins or other dried fruit.
Form the dough into a ball and wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Chill until firm, about 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Form the dough into one-inch balls and flatten each one with a fork. Place one inch apart on a lightly greased cookie sheet.
Bake for about 10 to 12 minutes, or until edges are golden. Cool on a wire rack and store in an airtight container.
