Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cream the butter and sugar in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy.
Add the flour gradually to the mixture, stirring until the dough comes together.
Shape the dough by rolling it into 1-inch balls and placing them on the prepared baking sheet.
Flatten each ball with the back of a fork, pressing down gently to create a crisscross pattern on each cookie.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the edges turn a light golden color.
Cool the cookies on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
