Soft and Chewy Sugar Cookies
These sugar cookies are incredibly soft and chewy, with just the right amount of sweetness to satisfy your cravings. Plus, they are easy to whip up in no time, making them perfect for novice bakers and seasoned pros alike.
Ingredients:
- 2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 ½ cups white sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon almond extract
- 1 cup sugar for rolling
- ½ cup powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and baking powder. Set this mixture aside.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and 1 ½ cups of white sugar until smooth and fluffy.
- Beat in the egg, vanilla extract, and almond extract until well combined.
- Gradually blend in the dry ingredients from the medium bowl. Mix until just combined.
- Roll the dough into balls, then roll each ball in the extra sugar to coat.
- Place the sugar-coated balls onto ungreased cookie sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden. Be careful not to overbake, as the cookies will continue to cook slightly after being removed from the oven.
- Once baked, remove from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
- For a sweet finishing touch, lightly dust cooled cookies with powdered sugar before serving.
