Ingredients
1cupLight Brown Sugar
1/2cupButter, softened
1teaspoonVanilla Extract
1largeEgg
1 3/4cupsAll-Purpose Flour
1teaspoonCinnamon
1/2teaspoonSalt
1/2teaspoonBaking Soda
1/2teaspoonBaking Powder
1cupFinely Diced Rhubarb
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy—about 2-3 minutes.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cinnamon, salt, baking soda, and baking powder.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet, mixing on low just until combined. Don’t overmix—stop when the dough comes together.
Gently fold in the diced rhubarb until evenly distributed.
Scoop tablespoon-sized rounds of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving 2 inches of space between each cookie.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are golden at the edges but still soft in the center.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days. For freezing, place cooled cookies in a single layer in a zipper bag or airtight container for up to 2 months.
