How to Make Soft And Chewy Sugar Cookies
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 1 cup granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup packed brown sugar using a mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy (about 3 minutes).
- Beat in 1 large egg and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract on medium speed until well combined (about 30 seconds).
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, beating on low speed until just combined (about 30 seconds). Do not overmix.
- Place 1/2 cup granulated sugar in a shallow dish.
- Roll the dough into 1 1/2-inch balls. Roll each ball in the sugar to coat.
- Place the sugar-coated dough balls about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
- Lightly butter the bottom of a glass and dip it in the sugar. Gently flatten each dough ball to about 3/4-inch thickness using the sugared glass.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the cookies are lightly colored.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for about 3 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
