Cooking Method

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Line baking trays with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 3–4 minutes.
Mix in the egg and vanilla extract until smooth.
In another bowl, whisk together the flour and salt.
Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the butter mixture until a soft dough forms.
Pipe decorative shapes or scoop small portions onto the prepared baking trays.
Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Allow the cookies to cool completely on a wire rack.
Melt the chocolate with the coconut oil using a double boiler or microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
Dip half of each cooled cookie into the melted chocolate.
Place the cookies on parchment paper and decorate immediately with sprinkles, nuts, or coconut if desired.
Allow the chocolate to set completely at room temperature or refrigerate for 15–20 minutes before serving.
