Step 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together using a hand or stand mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy (about 3 minutes).

Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers still look slightly underbaked.
