Step 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

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

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers are still soft.

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
