Want to make your own Canadian invention cookies?

Here's what you'll need:

• 1 cup of butter, room temperature
• 1 cup of sugar
• 2 eggs
• 1 teaspoon of vanilla
• 2 1/2 cups of flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon of salt 

Here's how to do it:

1. Cream together butter and sugar until smooth in a large bowl. Beat in eggs and add the vanilla. Add flour, baking soda and salt. Cover, and chill the dough for at least one hour (or overnight for best results).
2. Preheat oven to 400F degrees. Roll out dough to desired thickness (about ½ an inch). Cut into desired shapes and place on ungreased cookie sheets.
3. Bake for 7-8 minutes and then cool.
