Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 2.25 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 0.5 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 0.5 tsp ground ginger
  • 0.25 tsp ground nutmeg
Wet Ingredients
  • 0.75 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 0.75 cup brown sugar packed
  • 0.5 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Method
 

Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2–3 minutes.
  4. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully combined.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll into balls. Place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
  7. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers will look soft but will firm up as they cool.
  8. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For extra spice, add 0.25 tsp of ground cloves or a pinch of cayenne for warmth. Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days. These cookies also freeze well for up to 3 months.
