Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Beat butter in a stand mixer until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.

Add powdered sugar gradually, beating until smooth with soft peaks.

Mix in egg yolks and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.

Combine sifted flour, baking powder, and salt, then add to the mixture in batches, mixing until just combined.

Pipe 2-inch sections of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each. Bake for 13-15 minutes until lightly golden. Let cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
