- Sift the flour, baking powder and salt together then add it to the stand mixer on medium speed and mix until just combined.
- Wrap the dough in saran wrap and refrigerate for at least two hours (preferably overnight), then when you're ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Using a tablespoon scoop, drop tablespoon amounts into powdered sugar and roll until well covered then place onto a cookie sheet.
- Bake for 9-11 minutes, do not brown the cookies, they'll be soft when they come out and harden as they cool.
