Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 unit large egg
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoons culinary lavender buds
• 0.25 cup powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.

Step 5

Using a mortar and pestle or a small grinder, gently crush the culinary lavender buds to release their oils and fragrance.

Step 6

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until a soft dough forms.

Step 7

Fold the crushed lavender buds into the cookie dough, ensuring they are evenly distributed.

Step 8

Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, portion the dough into small balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 9

Flatten each dough ball slightly with the palm of your hand or the bottom of a glass.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just lightly golden (do not overbake).

Step 11

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.

Step 12

If desired, dust the fully cooled cookies with powdered sugar before serving.
