Ingredients
- 115 grams unsalted butter, softened
- 150 grams granulated sugar
- 50 grams light brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 250 grams all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon ground ginger
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 60 milliliters whole milk
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Step 3
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in three batches, alternating with the milk. Start and end with the dry ingredients, mixing just until combined.
Step 6
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the tops are set and slightly golden.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Serve the cookies warm or store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
