Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mat and set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
- In a different large bowl, cream together butter, sour cream and sugar until light and fluffy. Mix in egg and vanilla extract until combined.
- Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, scraping down the bowl after each addition, mix until well combined.
- Roll cookies into 2 inch balls and place on lined baking sheets.
- Dip the bottom of a glass into water and slightly flatten cookie dough balls.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes in a preheated oven at 350 degrees F or until cookies are puffed slightly, set and bottoms are lightly browned.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for 2 minutes before transferring to the wire rack. Allow to cool completely.
- While the cookies are cooling, mix together the frosting. Add all the frosting ingredients to a small mixing bowl and mix with a hand mixer until smooth.
- Once cookies are cooled all the way, frost them and enjoy.

Notes
- Store cookies in an airtight container in a single layer so that frosting doesn't get smushed. You can store them at room temperature for about 3 days. You can also freeze leftovers! They freeze better without frosting, but you can freeze with as well. Store in freezer bags or a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months.
