Chewy Sugar Cookies
These chewy sugar cookies have the perfect balance of sweetness and a comforting texture that melts in your mouth. Just wait until you smell the aroma of these cookies baking in your kitchen—it’s like magic!
Ingredients:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar for rolling
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Get that oven nice and warm, we’re about to bake some magic!
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and 1 1/2 cups of sugar until it’s fluffy and light. This is a crucial step, so take your time!
- Add in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then stir in the vanilla extract to give those cookies a delicious flavor.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until everything is well combined. Don’t over mix, just bring it together until you see no more flour.
- Now, scoop that heavenly dough into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Roll each ball in the granulated sugar to make sure they sparkle in the oven!
- Place the rolled dough onto ungreased cookie sheets, about 2 inches apart to allow space to spread.
- Bake in your preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the center is still soft. Remember, they’ll continue to cook a bit after you pull them out!
- Once done, let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
And there you have it—chewy sugar cookies that are sure to be a hit! Grab a glass of milk, and enjoy these delectable treats with your loved ones. Happy baking!
