𝐄𝐚𝐬𝐲 𝐒𝐮𝐠𝐚𝐫 𝐂𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐢𝐞𝐬:

Ingredients:

1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until creamy. Add the egg and vanilla extract and beat until
   well combined.

3. In a separate medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the
   wet ingredients and mix until a dough forms.

4. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Flatten the balls
   slightly with the bottom of a glass.

5. Bake the cookies for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Remove the cookies from the oven and let
   them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
