Our Easy Sugar Cookie Recipe: 2 3/4 cups All Purpose Flour 1 tsp Baking Powder 1/2 tsp Baking Soda 1/2 tsp Salt 1 cup (2 sticks) Unsalted Butter, softened 1 1/4 cups Granulated Sugar 1 Large Egg 2 tsp Lone Goose Bakery Vanilla Extract 1/4 tsp Almond Extract 1. Prep the oven and pans Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper. 2. Mix dry ingredients In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside. 3. Cream butter and sugar In a large bowl (or stand mixer), beat the softened butter and 1 ¼ cups sugar on medium speed for 2–3 minutes, until light and fluffy. 4. Add egg and vanilla Beat in the egg until fully combined. Mix in the vanilla extract and almond extract (if using). 5. Add dry ingredients Add the dry mixture in 2–3 additions, mixing on low just until combined. Stop when you no longer see dry flour; do not overmix. 6. Prepare the dough Scoop about 1 ½ tablespoons of dough per cookie (a small cookie scoop works well). Roll each portion into a smooth ball. 7. Bake Place dough balls on prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake 10–12 minutes, just until the edges look set and the tops look slightly puffy and matte. The centers should still look soft and pale; they’ll finish setting as they cool. Remove the cookies from oven, cool, and enjoy!
