Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar packed
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

- Add in the flour, salt, and baking soda and mix on medium speed until it combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Do not over-mix the batter.

- Cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge for 1.5 to 2 hours, or up to 24 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 350℉ when ready to bake the cookies.
- Place the balls of dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat, making sure they are about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
- Bake for 11-13 minutes until the edges are golden.
- Remove from the oven and, if using candy eyes, immediately place them onto the cookies while they are still warm, so they stay in place once cooled,
- Enjoy!
