Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

  3. Add in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract until well combined.

  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until a smooth cookie dough forms.

  5. Using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon, scoop the dough and roll it into 1-inch balls. Place them onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

  6. Use the bottom of a flat glass to gently flatten each ball into a round wafer shape, about 1/4-inch thick.

  7. Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.

  8. Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

  9. Once cooled, store the Best Vanilla Wafer Cookies in an airtight container for up to a week. Enjoy with a glass of milk or a cup of tea!
