Wall disappearing after slicing in PrusaSlicer?

I'm just trying to make a simple cookie cutter, and while the shape appears correct before slicing:

After slicing the walls/height of the cookie cutter disappears:

 

I haven't changed any settings from native, so what's happening here?

How thick is the wall, how wide is your  extrusion width, if the extrusion width is wider than the wall thickness, the wall doesn't get extruded... 

If this is the case, options include

Re scale the model to a larger size, 
re make the model with thicker walls, 
Resclice the model after adjusting the    'XY sze Compensation' value, which is an expert setting in 'printer settings >Advanced' sub menu
Reslice with a smaller nozzle and print with a smaller nozzle.

Yes, making the walls thicker resolved the issue, thank you!

Or, enable THIN WALL DETECTION in Slicer, it will then make a valiant attempt to print everything if sees, even fine detail.
