Instructions
- Using a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar for about 3 minutes (or until creamed/light & fluffy), scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Add in the egg, egg yolk, milk, and vanilla. Scrape down sides again as needed.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together dry ingredients.
- Gradually add them in at a slow speed just until combined.
- Chill the dough for 30 minutes or overnight. If you feel the cookie dough is dry, see recipe notes below.
- When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 325°F. And line baking sheets with parchment.
- Remove the cookie dough from the fridge. If very cold, allow to sit on the counter for ~10 minutes so it's easier to scoop and roll.
- Add about ¼ cup granulated sugar into a bowl for rolling.
- Scoop and roll the cookie dough into about 1 ½ tbsp.-sized balls.
- Roll the cookie dough balls in the granulated sugar. Repeat with remaining cookie dough.
- Bake for ~8-10 minutes, being very careful not to over bake.
- Cool on the cookie sheet just for a few minutes then transfer to wire rack to cool completely. Garnish with a sprinkle of granulated sugar. Enjoy!
- Store on the counter in an airtight container for 3-4 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
Notes
- Store on the counter in an airtight container for 3-4 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
- Store on the counter in an airtight container for 3-4 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
- Be sure to spoon and level your flour. Too much flour will make these cookies dry. If you feel the cookie dough is dry, add a splash of milk to hydrate the dough. Just 1-2 tbsp. is plenty.
