Soft and Chewy Sugar Cookies

Ingredients:

  • 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups white sugar
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar for rolling

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a small bowl, stir together the flour, baking soda, and baking powder. Set this mixture aside.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together the butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla.
  4. Gradually blend the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Using your hands, roll the dough into balls about 1 inch in diameter, then roll each ball in the granulated sugar before placing it on the prepared baking sheet. Leave enough space between cookies to allow for spreading.
  6. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until the edges are lightly browned. Keep an eye on them to ensure they do not overbake.
  7. Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
