  5. In a separate bowl mix flour, baking powder and baking soda together. Add to the creamed butter/sugar. Beat with mixer until everything is mixed in.
  6. Scoop by the heaping tablespoon (golf ball sized or 2.5 Tablespoons), then flatten in the palm of your hand to about 3.5" in diameter.

  9. Bake 12-14 minutes or until the edges are just starting to brown.
