Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter and granulated sugar substitute together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and beat until well combined.
Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring until a dough forms.
Using a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
Gently flatten each dough ball with the back of a spoon or your fingers to about 1/4-inch thickness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container for up to a week.
