These sugar cookies are perfectly sweet and chewy, with a slight crispness around the edges. If you don’t have a stand mixer, feel free to use an electric hand mixer. An ice cream scoop makes portioning the dough quick and easy, but measuring spoons will get the job done as well. The steam function of the Anova Precision Oven ensures these cookies stay moist and tender. Only a handful of staple baking ingredients are required and the dough comes together in no time!

2. Combine Dry Ingredients

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

3. Beat Butter, Sugar, and Egg

Combine the butter and granulated sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat the mixture on medium-high speed until combined, 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Reduce the speed to medium and beat in the egg and vanilla until combined. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.

4. Add Flour and Milk

Add the flour and beat on low speed just until combined. Add the milk and beat until just combined.

5. Portion Dough
