Butter Ball Cookies

I'm totally on a dessert kick lately now that I'm past my first trimester and back to myself again!  So here's another one.

I grew up with these cookies, and they are still my favorite shortbread/sugar cookie ever. :)

Cream together 1 cup butter, 1/2 cup brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla till light and fluffy.  Gradually add 21/4 cups sifted flour, mixing till smooth.  Dough will be somewhat crumbly but will stick together when rolled together.  Form into 1-inch balls;  roll in granulated sugar.  Bake on greased cookie sheet at 325 for 20 minutes.  Cool and eat!  Makes about 48 cookies.
