Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and confectioners’ sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
  2. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing well until fully incorporated.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  4. Gradually blend the dry mixture into the creamed mixture until just combined.
  5. If desired, fold in the chopped nuts, chocolate chips, or dried fruits.
  6. Divide the dough into two equal portions and roll each into a log shape, about 2 inches in diameter.
  7. Wrap each log in wax paper or plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for the best results.
  8. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  9. Slice the chilled dough into 1/4-inch thick cookies and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
