Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This should take about 3-4 minutes of mixing with an electric mixer.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix.
Roll the dough into small balls (about 1 inch in diameter) and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each ball.
Using the back of a fork, gently press down on each dough ball to flatten slightly and create a criss-cross pattern on the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are slightly golden brown.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
