Directions:
- -1/2 oz. (1-3/4 cups) unbleached all-purpose flour
- /2 tsp. baking powder
- /2 tsp. table salt
- /2 lb. (1 cup) unsalted butter, softened at room temperature
- Cup granulated sugar; more for coating
- Large egg
- /2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
- Tip: For the best results, measure your flour by weight instead of volume. (1 cup of all-purpose flour equals 4-1/2 oz.) If you don’t have a scale, be sure to use the proper technique when filling your measuring cups.
- Tip: Note: Be sure to bake these cookies on a cookie sheet, not a rimmed baking sheet; otherwise, the dough will spread too much, and the cookies won’t retain a nice, round shape.
- Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 350°F. In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt to blend. Using a stand mixer with the paddle attachhment or a hand-held mixer, beat the butter and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 min. Scrape the bowl with a rubber spatula. Beat in the egg and vanilla until thoroughly combined, about 2 min. Scrape the bowl again. With the mixer on low speed, slowly blend in the flour until incorporated, about 30 seconds.
- Drop the dough by rounded tablespoonfuls into a bowl of granulated sugar and roll to coat; then set the coated balls about 3 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
- Bake until the cookies are golden brown on the edges and slightly soft in the center, 15 to 18 min. Let the cookies cool on the sheet for 1 min. before transferring them to a rack to cool.
- The cookies can be stored in an airtight container for up to three days.
