WORLD'S BEST BUTTER COOKIES
I tested 8 different butter cookie recipes, looking for the "perfect" butter cookie. It had to be buttery, a little crumbly (like shortbread), and not too sweet. This is the winner. I think these are the Worlds Best Butter Cookie, courtesy of Chef Alice Medrich.

Steps:
- Beat the butter, sugar, salt and vanilla together until smooth and creamy.
- Mix in the egg yolk until well incorporated, scraping down the sides of the bowl at least once.
- Add the flour and mix just until incorporated.
- Scrape onto a lightly floured board and knead a few times, just until the dough smooths out.
- Turn onto a sheet of plastic wrap and roll into a log, wrap up and refrigerate for several hours or freeze.
- Before baking, preheat the oven to 325°F.
- Line your baking sheets with parchment.
- Slice the dough into slices about 1/8" thick and place them on the sheets about an inch apart (they won't be spreading very much, but they need air room around each cookie).
- Bake until JUST beginning to turn golden around the edges, about 16-18 minutes.
- Note: you can do many things with these cookies.
- You could roll the dough out and cut shapes.
- You could slice them even thinner and sandwich them with chocolate or jam or lemon curd.
- You could make them and then dip them half into chocolate.
- You could just make them and eat them, which is my favorite.
- Whatever you do, they will be delicious.

Steps:
- Make the tart shell: Melt butter over medium heat. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until deep golden brown, about 11 minutes. Immediately pour browned butter into a large bowl, and let cool to room temperature, about 10 minutes. Stir in vanilla.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Gradually stir into browned butter mixture. Press dough into a 9-inch tart pan with a removeable bottom. Refrigerate until firm, about 15 minutes. Using the tines of a fork, pierce bottom of tart shell all over.
- Line tart shell with parchment and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until edges are set and golden, 15 to 18 minutes. Remove weights and parchment and continue baking until bottom of crust is dry and golden, about 5 minutes more. Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
- Make the lemon curd filling: Place 2 1/2 teaspoons cold water in a small bowl. Sprinkle gelatin on top; let stand until softened, about 5 minutes.
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together sugar, lemon zest, and egg yolks; whisk in lemon juice and salt. Add butter and place pan over medium-high heat. Cook, whisking constantly, until butter has melted, mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, and small bubbles form around edge of pan, about 5 minutes.
- Remove pan from heat while continuing to whisk. Add softened gelatin, whisking to combine. Strain curd filling through a fine-mesh sieve into the tart shell, spreading evenly, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving; wash and dry the saucepan.
- Make the meringue topping: Just before serving, fill the same saucepan with about 2 inches water and bring to a simmer. Combine sugar, egg whites, and salt in a heatproof standing mixer bowl. Set bowl over (not in) simmering water, and whisk until mixture is warm to the touch and sugar dissolves, 2 to 3 minutes. (Test by rubbing mixture between your fingers; the mixture should be smooth.)
- Attach bowl to standing mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Whisk on high speed until stiff, glossy peaks form and mixture is cool, about 10 minutes. Whisk in vanilla and cornstarch.
- Transfer meringue into a large pastry bag fitted with a large round tip; pipe meringue to cover filling, as desired. Place under broiler or use a kitchen torch to brown. Serve immediately.
