THE BEST SOFT AND CHEWY SUGAR COOKIES

Steps:

• In a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer with the cookie whisk attachment, beat together the melted butter, 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, and the light brown sugar. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat until just combined and smooth.
• Add in the flour, cornstarch, salt, baking soda, and baking powder. Mix until well combined, but be sure not to over-mix. Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least an hour.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Scoop a 2-3 heaping tablespoons of cookie dough at a time and roll into balls, then roll the balls in sugar to coat. Place onto the prepared baking sheet, giving plenty of room for spreading. You should be able to fit 6-8 cookies per tray.
• Bake for 12-16 minutes, or until the edges are JUST beginning to set and the centers are still puffy and soft and seem underbaked. Remove from the oven and let cool FULLY on the baking sheet to set the cookies.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside.
• Combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt in a medium sized bowl and set aside.
• Cream the butter and sugars together in a large mixer bowl on medium speed until light in color and fluffy, 2-3 minutes. You should be able to see the change in color happen and know it's ready.
• Add the egg and mix until well combined.
• Add the vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
• Add the dry ingredients and mix until the dough is well combined. It will be thick and shouldn't be sticky. Do not over mix. Once it's well combined, use a rubber spatula to help it come together to form a more cohesive ball.
• Create 1 1/2 tablespoon sized balls of cookie dough. Gently roll into a ball, then roll each ball in the additional sugar to coat. Set the balls on the baking sheet.
• Bake cookies for 7-8 minutes. The cookies will spread and the centers will look soft, but should look done. Remove just before the edges begin to turn golden. Don't over bake. The cookies will be a little puffy when you take them out of the oven but will fall a bit as they cool.
• Remove from the oven and allow to cool on baking sheets for 4-5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Before you roll each ball of dough, dip your hands in cold water and dry--this will keep dough cool and help keep it from sticking to your hands.).
• Butter bottom of glass and then dip in sugar.
• Flatten dough balls with glass until about 3/4 inch thick.
• Bake until cookies are golden brown around edges and very lightly colored, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Cool cookies on baking sheets about 3 minutes and then transfer to wire rack and cool to room temperature.
