Steps:
- Mix softened BUTTER and sugar until creamy.
- Add the egg and vanilla and beat well.
- In a separate mixing bowl, mix together the cornmeal, Baking Powder, salt and flour.
- Add to the creamed mixture.
- Drop by teaspoonfuls onto a greased cookie sheet.
- Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven about 15 minutes or until lightly brown.
Tips:
- Use fresh, high-quality cornmeal for the best flavor and texture.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help the cookies be chewy and tender.
- Gradually add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help prevent the cookies from becoming tough.
- Stir in the dry ingredients until just combined. Overmixing will make the cookies tough.
- Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Bake the cookies at a moderate temperature (350°F) for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
- Let the cookies cool on a wire rack before serving. This will help them firm up and prevent them from breaking.
