Instructions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Make sure to mix these ingredients well to ensure even distribution of the leavening agent. Set this mixture aside for later use.
Step 2
In another bowl, cream the softened butter until it is light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until combined. This will create a smooth batter that serves as the base for your cookies.
Step 3
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can lead to tough cookies. If you are using chocolate chips or nuts, now is the time to fold them into the batter.
Step 4
Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded portions of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Leave some space between each cookie to allow them to spread while baking.
Step 5
Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit). Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for about 10 to 12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look set. Keep a close eye on them to avoid overbaking!
Step 6
Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes. Transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your delicious cookies at any occasion!
Servings

Equipment
A sturdy mixing bowl is essential for combining your ingredients. Opt for a glass or plastic bowl that’s big enough to accommodate all the mixing without spilling.

Variations
Vegan Cookies: Substitute the butter with coconut oil or plant-based spreads and use flax eggs (1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed mixed with 2.5 tablespoons of water) in place of regular eggs. 🌱 You won’t believe how delicious these vegan cookies can be!
Faq
- What if my cookies spread too much while baking?
Make sure your butter is softened but not melted, as melted butter can lead to excessive spreading. Also, chilling the dough for 30 minutes helps!
- How do I know when my cookies are done baking?
Your cookies should be golden brown around the edges and slightly soft in the middle. They will continue to cook as they cool, so it’s okay if they seem a bit underbaked!
- Can I freeze the cookie dough for later use?
Absolutely! You can scoop the cookie dough onto a sheet, freeze them solid, then transfer to a ziplock bag for up to 3 months. Just bake directly from frozen!
- Can I use different flavors or add-ins in my cookie recipe?
Of course! Feel free to get creative — mix in nuts, dried fruits, or switch up the spices to personalize your cookies!
- What is the best way to store baked cookies?
Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for about a week, or in the fridge for a crispy fresh taste!
- How can I make my cookies softer?
If you prefer soft cookies, experiment by using a little more brown sugar, adding an extra egg yolk, or slightly underbaking them!
