How Do You Make The Best, Easiest, Super-Soft Sugar Cookies?
I first stumbled upon the following recipe in a Better Homes and Gardens cookbook from the 60’s, and gave it a few small tweaks. If you’re searching for a simple yet fantastic cookie recipe, look no further! Follow this quick and easy recipe, guaranteed to make the chewiest, softest, most delicious sugar cookies you’ve ever baked! Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. Using an electric mixer, cream together the butter and sugar in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Next, add the vanilla and egg, and mix until well blended. In a separate bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually blend the dry ingredients into the wet (about 1/2 cup at a time), until thoroughly mixed together. Add the milk and beat for about a minute to soften the dough. Drop by heaping teaspoons onto a cookie sheet, keeping about two inches between cookies. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until edges start to turn golden brown.
