LANGUES-DE-CHAT

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F. Sift together flour and salt in a bowl.
• Put butter into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; mix on medium speed until pale and creamy. Mix in confectioners' sugar. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Mix in vanilla. Fold in flour mixture.
• Transfer batter to a pastry bag fitted with a 3/8-inch plain round tip (such as Ateco #802). Pipe 2 3/4-inch lengths about 3/8 inch wide (the ends should be slightly wider than the center) onto baking sheets lined with parchment, spacing about 1 inch apart. (Batter should be refrigerated if not being used immediately.)
• Bake until just golden around edges, 10 to 12 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through. Let cool on sheets 3 minutes. Transfer to wire racks; let cool completely. Cookies can be stored in airtight containers at room temperature up to 3 days.
• Use a pastry bag fitted with a plain round tip to pipe lengths of batter in rows; squeeze a bit of extra dough on the ends of each, so that the ends are slightly wider than the centers.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Butter and flour two baking sheets.
• Beat the butter, sugar, vanilla, and salt until pale and fluffy. Beat the egg whites for 1 minute, until they mound slightly. Add the egg whites and mix just enough to blend. Add the flour through a sieve, shaking it over the batter and folding it in quickly.
• Using a dinner knife, scoop up about 1 teaspoon batter and tap it onto the cookie sheet. Press the knife down onto the batter so you have a line 2 1/2 inches. Spread the batter on the sheet in this manner, leaving 2 inches between each cookie.
• Bake for 4-5 minutes in the middle of the oven, until the cookies have browned slightly at the edges. Remove with a metal spatula and cool on a rack. If the cookies harden before you take them off the sheet, return them to the oven to warm them.
• When the cookies have cooled, store them in an airtight container.
