Instructions

  • Cream butter and sugars in a mixing bowl using an electric mixer.

Notes

TIPS FOR Baking The Best COOKIES

  • Use room temperature ingredients. Butter can be slightly chilled, but should be soft when your thumb is pressed into it.
  • Use an electric mixer. A stand mixer or electric hand mixer works great. You can make cookies by hand, but an electric mixer is best for creaming the butter and sugar together.
  • Bake on light cookie sheets. All of my recipes are aimed at baking with light metal cookie sheets. That’s all I bake with. If you use dark sheets you’ll need to keep an eye on the cookies and adjust the baking times, if necessary.
