Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (150oC). For this recipe, I did fan as there will be multiple trays in the oven and you will want them to bake evenly.
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy and there are no lumps.
- Slowly add in the egg whites and mix until smooth. Add the remaining whole egg and mix until fully incorporated. If the mix curdles don't worry, just give it a good whisk to bring it back together.
- Once combined, add the flour, vanilla, and salt and mix until it just comes together. Do not overmix.
- The batter will be somewhat soft. Place batter in a piping bag fitted with a medium pastry tip. Pipe it in even mounds onto a cookie sheet (roughly 2 teaspoons). Keep cookies about 1 ½ inches apart as the batter will spread when baked.
- Place in oven and bake for approximately 18-20 minutes or until golden.
- Once cooled store in an airtight for up to 7 days. Use for a cookie crust or for a classic banana pudding.

Steps:
- Position 1 oven rack in the top third of the oven and another in the bottom third. Heat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl and set aside. Cream the butter and vanilla sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl after 1 minute. Add the egg and incorporate on medium speed for 30 seconds. Scrape down the sides of the mixer bowl. Add the vanilla extract and milk and blend on low speed for 15 seconds. Add the flour mixture and mix on low speed just to incorporate. Chill the batter in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes before scooping.
- Scoop the batter in teaspoon-sized balls and arrange them on 2 parchment paper-lined half sheet pans, approximately 35 cookies per pan. Use the heel of your hand to slightly flatten each ball. Bake, 2 pans at a time, rotating the pans halfway through the baking, until golden brown, about 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the pans to a cooling rack to cool completely before removing the cookies from the pan.
Tips:
- Use cold butter. Cold butter will keep the wafers from spreading too much in the oven, resulting in a crispier cookie.
- Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the dough, resulting in a lighter and more tender cookie.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the dough from curdling.
- Stir in the flour, baking powder, and salt until just combined. Do not overmix, as this can result in a tough cookie.
- Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to a thickness of 1/8 inch. Use a sharp knife or pastry wheel to cut the dough into wafers.
- Prick the wafers with a fork. This will help to prevent them from puffing up in the oven.
- Bake the wafers in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Let the wafers cool on a wire rack before serving.
Conclusion:
Vanilla wafers are a classic cookie that is perfect for any occasion. They are simple to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With their delicate flavor and crispy texture, vanilla wafers are sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
