Method
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and baking powder. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract.
- Gradually blend in the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Roll rounded teaspoons of dough into balls and place them onto the prepared baking sheets. Flatten slightly and decorate with your choice of toppings.
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until edges are lightly golden. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Chef's Tips:
• For a softer cookie, bake for the lower end of the time range.
• Avoid overmixing the dough to prevent tough cookies.
• Serve with a glass of milk or hot cocoa for the ultimate holiday treat.
Food Safety:
• Ensure eggs are fresh and properly stored to prevent foodborne illness.
• Store cookies in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
