Delicious Sour Cream Cookies Recipe

In a large mixing bowl, combine the sour cream, sugar, and softened butter. Beat them together until you achieve a smooth, creamy consistency.

Add in the egg and vanilla extract, mixing well to incorporate everything evenly.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix; you want a tender dough.

Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. This will enhance the texture of your cookies and make them easier to handle.

While the dough is chilling, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

Once the dough is chilled, scoop tablespoon-sized portions and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.

Bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Remove them from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes on the sheet before transferring them to a wire rack.

Once your cookies are cool, they are ready to be served. Enjoy these delicious sour cream cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage. They're great for birthdays or any special occasion!
