Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy using an electric mixer. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
Add the large egg and pure vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture. Beat until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until a dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Scoop the dough by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie for spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Avoid overbaking for a softer center.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
Enjoy your nut-free classic vanilla cookies as a delightful treat!
