Ingredients

• 3 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 1 cup Unsalted butter (softened)
• 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
• 2 Large eggs
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Milk
• 0.25 cups Powdered sugar (for optional dusting)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large bowl, using a hand mixer or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then, mix in the vanilla extract and milk until combined.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix.

Step 6

Using a cookie scoop or two spoons, drop 2-tablespoon-sized dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 7

Gently press each ball lightly with your fingers or the back of a spoon to create a slightly flattened shape.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and slightly golden. The centers may still look soft—that’s okay!

Step 9

Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

If desired, dust the cooled cookies with powdered sugar for a decorative and sweet finishing touch.

Step 11

Serve and enjoy your delicious Big White Soft Sugar Cookies!
