Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 4 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, chopped

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheet with parchment paper.

- Gradually add flour and salt, mixing until combined.
- Form dough into 1-inch balls and place on baking sheet. Flatten slightly.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes until edges are golden. Cool completely.
- Meanwhile, make ganache: heat heavy cream until just boiling, pour over chopped chocolate, and stir until smooth.

Notes
- Ensure cookies are completely cooled before applying ganache to prevent melting.
