Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Cotton Candy Cookies
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add room temperature eggs and both extracts. Mix until fully incorporated and smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually mix into the wet ingredients until a soft dough forms.
- Divide the dough into two bowls; color one with pink and the other with blue food coloring, mixing until evenly distributed.
- Use a cookie scoop to take a portion of each color and press them together to form a single scoop.
- Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, spaced 2-3 inches apart. Bake for about 12 minutes until edges are golden.
- Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes
Use softened butter for the best texture. Spoon and level flour to avoid dense cookies.
