Vanilla Crinkle Cookies

Sure! Here’s a recipe for Vanilla Crinkle Cookies:

Ingredients:

• 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup powdered sugar, for rolling

Instructions:

1. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
3. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
5. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight if possible. Chilling the dough will make it easier to handle and prevent the cookies from spreading too much.
6. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
7. Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough and roll it into a ball using your hands. Roll the ball of dough in powdered sugar until it’s coated evenly. Repeat with the remaining dough.
8. Place the coated dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
9. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the cookies have cracked on top.
10. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
11. Once cooled, store the Vanilla Crinkle Cookies in an airtight container at room temperature.
