- ¾ cup (170g) unsalted butter, softened
- 1 ¼ cup (250g) packed brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 cups (248g) all-purpose flour
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Cream butter and brown sugar until fluffy in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.
Beat in egg and vanilla extract. Mix in baking soda and salt. Slowly mix in flour.
Scoop 2 tablespoon balls of cookie dough onto prepared cookie sheets, 2-inches apart. I like to roll them between my palms to form a prettier ball (and a prettier cookie).
Bake for 10-14 minutes or until no longer glossy on top and light golden around the edges.
Cool 10 minutes on cookie sheet before removing.
Store in an airtight container for several days or freeze for up to 2 months.
- Parchment paper will yield a cookie with the crackle tops. Silicone will yield a flatter top with a thicker edge (it prevents as much spreading).
