Steps:
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Add the butter and granulated sugar to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat on high speed for a full 2 minutes, scraping down the bowl halfway through the mixing; the butter should be very light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla and beat on medium speed until well combined. Add half the dry ingredients and beat on low speed to combine. Scrape down the mixing bowl before adding the remaining dry ingredients and beat to combine. Refrigerate for 1 hour in the bowl for drop cookies, or form into a 1-inch log for slice-and-bake cookies.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the turbinado sugar in a small bowl. For drop cookies, scoop the cookie dough with a 1 tablespoon-size cookie scoop and then dip the tops of the cookie dough balls into the sugar. Place onto the prepared baking sheet.
- For slice-and-bake cookies, cut the log into 1/2-inch-thick rounds. Press the tops into the sugar and place on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake the cookies until slightly puffed and lightly golden on the bottom, about 15 minutes.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 375°F.
- In large bowl, stir Chocolate Chip Dough ingredients until soft dough forms. In another large bowl, stir Double Chocolate Chunk Dough ingredients until soft dough forms.
- Divide each dough into 2 portions. On work surface sprinkled generously with flour, shape each dough portion into 15-inch rope. Place 1 rope chocolate chip dough and 1 rope double chocolate chunk dough side by side. Cut both at the same time into 1/2-inch pieces; shape into about 24 balls so both kinds of dough are in each ball. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Repeat with other 2 ropes of dough.
- Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until edges of chocolate chip dough are light golden brown. Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheet to cooling rack.

THE BESTEST BUTTER COOKIES (ROLLED)
My mother in law has been making these for Christmas for years and years. I make them for all holidays, using different cookie cutters for whatever occasion. They are the best when they are frosted, but sometimes I just sprinkle on colored sugar before baking. I call them "Play Dough" cookies because that's what the dough smells like to me! (Don't worry, they don't taste like Play Dough :) Chilling time is not included.

GORGEOUS TWO-TONED COOKIES
This makes a very beautiful spiral/checkerboard cookies. The taste of these is wonderful too - tender, slightly crumbly, buttery. I got the recipe from a local (singapore) recipe book and made two batches (one spiral and one checkerboard) for Chinese New Year. I will post a pic once the recipe is up. Although these require more work than regular cookies, but it's very worth it, as the results are spectacular! Prep time include chilling time and cook time is 18 minutes per batch.
