Ingredients
  

1 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

1/2 cup powdered sugar (for dusting)

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.

      Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.

        In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.

          Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing until a soft dough forms.

            Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.

              Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are still soft.

                Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

                  Once cooled, dust the cookies with powdered sugar for an extra touch of sweetness.
