Brown Sugar Butter Cookies

These are simple and delicious!  Nice and soft and a little bit chewy...perfect, easy cookie!  I adapted the recipe from here Grandma's Butterscotch Cookies.  -Kristin

3/4 cup butter, softened
1 cup brown sugar

1 egg

1/2 tsp vanilla

1 3/4 cup flour

1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

• Cream the butter and sugar till fluffy.
•  Beat in egg and vanilla until well combined.
• Stir together the flour, baking powder and salt in a separate bowl. Then mix into the butter mixture until smooth and well combined.
• Put desired amount of dough on greased cookie sheets.   Dip a fork in warm water and use it to squish down the cookies.
• Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes.
