In large bowl, beat butter until smooth; beat in sugar until fluffy. Beat in vanilla. Stir in flour, cornstarch and salt to make smooth dough; knead 5 times.On lightly floured surface, roll out dough to 1/4-inch (5 mm) thickness. Using floured 1-1/3-inch (3.3 cm) round fluted cutter, cut out circles, rerolling scraps once. Place on parchment paper–lined baking sheets; prick each twice with fork. Freeze until firm, about 15 minutes.
Bake in 300°F (150°C) oven until pale golden, about 30 minutes. Let cool on pans for 10 minutes; transfer to racks and let cool completely.
