This is one of my favorite recipes from TOH. It is easy, it is cheap, and it is DELICIOUS! I think these are my family's favorite cookies. I have even made a batch with pasteurized eggs for making cookie dough ice cream! :) The cook time is for one batch in the oven. The dough freezes well; simply roll into a log and wrap in plastic wrap. Then just slice off cookies and bake (from frozen) according to directions.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter (no substitutes)
1 cup sugar
1 egg
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. In a mixing bowl (or your stand mixer), cream butter and sugar together until the mixture is light and fluffy looking.
3. Beat in egg and vanilla.
4. Combine dry ingredients in a separate bowl and slowly add to creamed mixture and mix well.
5. Drop by teaspoonfuls 2 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheets.
6. Bake at 350 for 12 -15 minutes or until edges are golden brown.
7. Cool on a wire rack.
8. These stay pretty pale and chewy.
