Scale
- Dry Ingredients:
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda

- 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

- Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
