Step-by-Step Instructions
Let’s dive into the fun part—baking! First, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large mixing bowl, I cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy. This process takes about 3-5 minutes with an electric mixer. Then, I add in the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until everything is well combined. The sweet aroma of the butter and sugar is already making my kitchen feel like a warm hug!
