Preparation Steps

• In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
• Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
• Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
• Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, about 2 inches apart. You can slightly flatten them with your hand or the bottom of a glass.
• Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
• While the cookies are cooling, prepare the glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth and pourable.
• Dip the cooled cookies into the glaze, letting any excess drip off. Place them back on the wire rack to allow the glaze to set.
