Classic Sugar Cookie

These sugar cookies are tender, chewy, and have a delicate sweetness that pairs wonderfully with a variety of toppings. With a hint of vanilla and a sprinkle of sugar on top, each bite is a delightful experience.

Ingredients

• 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour

• 1 teaspoon baking soda

• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened

• 1 1/2 cups white sugar

• 1 egg

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

• 3/4 teaspoon salt

• 1/4 cup white sugar for decoration

Instructions

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and baking powder. Set aside.

3. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and 1 1/2 cups sugar until smooth.

4. Add Egg and Vanilla: Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.

5. Combine Mixtures: Gradually blend the dry ingredients into the creamed mixture.
