Ingredients

Servings

• 2.5 cup All-Purpose Flour
• 1 teaspoon Ground Nutmeg
• 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Unsalted Butter
• 0.75 cup Granulated Sugar
• 0.25 cup Brown Sugar
• 1 Egg
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
• 0.5 cup Powdered Sugar

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, ground nutmeg, baking powder, and salt.

4. Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined.

6. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
7. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookie logs cool for 5 minutes. Transfer the logs to a wire rack to cool completely.
