An interesting savory taste. Well worth the time & effort
Ingredients:
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, sifted
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped (not dried)
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup sanding sugar (available in cake- or food specialty stores)
Directions:
1. In the bowl of an electric mixer, mix butter and granulated sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Mix in egg and vanilla. Add flour, rosemary and salt; mix on low speed until incorporated. Divide dough in half; shape each piece into a log. Place each log on a 12-inch by-16-inch piece of parchment. Roll in parchment to 1 1/2 inches in diameter, pressing a ruler along the edge of parchment at each turn to narrow log and force out air. Transfer to paper towel tubes. Freeze 1 hour.
2. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
3. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll logs in sanding sugar; slice 1/4 inch thick. Arrange 1 inch apart on prepared sheet. Bake until edges are golden, 18 to 20 minutes. Transfer to wire racks and let cool.
