Ingredients
All-purpose flour: 1 ½ cups
Baking powder: 1 teaspoon
Salt: ¼ teaspoon
Unsalted butter (softened): ½ cup (1 stick)
Granulated sugar: ½ cup
Egg: 1 large
Vanilla extract: 1 teaspoon
Ripe mango puree: ½ cup (from 1-2 mangoes)
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
3. In a large bowl, cream softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
4. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
5. Stir in the ripe mango puree. Mix until smooth.
6. Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients. Mix just until combined. Do not overmix your Delicious Mango Cookies dough.
7. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets. Leave about two inches between each cookie for spreading.
8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers of your mango cookies will still look soft.
9. Remove from oven and let the Delicious Mango Cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
