Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a stand mixer, cream the softened butter and powdered sugar until smooth. Add the flour, vanilla, and cornstarch, mixing until thoroughly combined and scraping down the sides as needed.
Scoop out one tablespoon of dough, shape into a ball, and place on the baking sheet an inch apart. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the cookies are no longer glossy and the bottoms are slightly browned.
Let cool and enjoy.
