Sugar Cookie Recipe

Ingredients:
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
pinch of salt
1 cup soft butter
1 1/2 cups white sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F/190 degrees C. Mix together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
-In a separate larger bowl, cream together the butter and sugar. Mix in the egg and vanilla. Then slowly add in the dry flour mix.
-Roll teaspoonfuls of dough into balls, then put on cookie sheets. I very lightly grease the cookie sheets with butter; this gives the cookies an extra buttery taste.
-Bake 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden/lightly browned. Let stand on cookie sheet two minutes, then enjoy!

Cookies will be soft until they cool completely. Once cooled they will be crisp but chewy on the inside. My kids prefer them warm, I like them either way. They are very good! and you can add sprinkles or frosting. Really though, these cookies are so good plain!
