   In another bowl, cream the butter, brown sugar and vanilla with an electric mixer.

   Using a spoon, drop 60 ml (1/4 cup) dough per cookie on a cookie sheet, leaving 5 cm (2 inches) between cookies. Flatten each cookie slightly with your fingertips.

   Bake until the edges of each cookie are golden brown, about 15 minutes. Let cool partially before transferring to a cooling rack. Repeat with the remaining dough.
