Instructions
- In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.

- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Remove from refrigerator. Create 1 inch balls and place onto a baking sheet. (Use parchment paper or spray gently with cooking spray.)
- Onto the top of each ball, gently press with a thumb or finger to create a crevice.
