Ingredients
- 170 grams unsalted butter
- 200 grams light brown sugar
- 50 grams granulated sugar
- 1 piece large egg
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 250 grams all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. This will take about 2-3 minutes using an electric mixer on medium speed.
Step 3
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Mix on low speed until the dough comes together and no streaks of flour remain.
Step 6
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, portion out the dough and roll it into balls. Place the cookie dough balls about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are just lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked, but they will set as they cool.
Step 8
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Serve and enjoy your soft and chewy Brown Sugar Butter Cookies!
