Brown Sugar Cookies
These cookies are not only simple to make but also bring a touch of warmth and sweetness to your home. The rich flavor of brown sugar combined with a few simple ingredients results in a cookie that is soft, chewy, and utterly irresistible.
Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set this mixture aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy.
- Add the vanilla extract and egg to the mixture, beating until fully incorporated.
- Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving ample space between each cookie for spreading.
- Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. The centers may appear soft, but they will firm up as they cool.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once your cookies have cooled, feel free to enjoy them on their own or with a glass of milk. Their rich flavor makes them a perfect accompaniment to a cozy afternoon, and they’re sure to be a hit with family and friends alike. Happy baking!
