Ingredients:
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup butter, softened (two sticks)
1 1/2 cups white sugar (I used a little less, due to lack of correct amount, and they came out better than usual!)
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). In a small bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, and baking powder. Set aside.
2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in egg and vanilla. Gradually blend in the dry ingredients. Roll rounded teaspoonfuls of dough into balls, and place onto ungreased cookie sheets.
3. Bake 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden. Let stand on cookie sheet two minutes before removing to cool on wire racks.
( For thumbprint cookies, push center of dough balls in and place SMALL amount of jelly, jam or marmalade in middle. Bake a little longer than usual, keeping a constant eye on them. I used orange marmalade, and they were quickly gobbled up by the very child who proclaimed that they "look yucky".)
