> 1 cup (2 sticks) butter, room temperature
> 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
> 3/4 tsp salt
> 2 cups all-purpose flour
> 1 cup finely grated Parmesan

Steps

1
Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, beat the butter on low speed until smooth. Add the sugar and salt, beating on medium 3–4 min., until light and fluffy.

To mixer bowl, add the flour, Parmesan, and rosemary. Beat on low until just combined. Divide the dough in half. On a large sheet of plastic, shape each dough piece into a 1½-inch-diameter log. Wrap tightly in plastic and smooth out log. Repeat with remaining dough and another sheet of plastic. Chill logs 1–2 hours, until firm.

Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment. Cut each log into ¼-inch-thick slices. Place on baking sheets 1 inch apart.
