Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup light brown sugar
- 1 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon ground allspice
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture, and beat until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and ground allspice.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded tablespoons of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly browned and the centers are set.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
