  4. ### Ingredients
  5. - 2 cups (240g) unsalted butter, softened
  6. - 3/4 cup (150g) white sugar
  7. - 3/4 cup (150g) brown sugar
  8. - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  9. - 1 large egg
  10. - 4 cups (480g) all-purpose flour
  11. - 2 teaspoons baking powder
  12. - Pinch of salt
  13. ### Step-by-Step Instructions
  14. #### 1. Prepare the Dough
  15. - **Preheat Oven:** Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that the dough bakes evenly.
  16. - **Cream Butter and Sugars:** In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. This step is crucial for achieving the perfect texture.
  17. #### 2. Add Wet Ingredients
  18. - **Vanilla and Egg:** Stir in the vanilla extract and egg. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are thoroughly combined.
  19. #### 3. Combine Dry Ingredients
  20. - **Flour, Baking Powder, Salt:** Gradually add the flour, baking powder, and salt to the wet mixture. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix as this can make the cookies tough.
  21. ### Preparing Thumbprints
  22. #### 4. Chill the Dough
  23. - **Chill Time:** Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least an hour. Chilling helps prevent the dough from spreading too much during baking.
  24. #### 5. Forming the Cookies
  25. - **Roll the Dough:** Once chilled, roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/4-inch thickness.
  26. - **Create Thumbprints:** Use your thumb or a small cookie cutter to press an indentation into each round of dough. Ensure you make these impressions deep enough so they hold their shape during baking.
  27. ### Baking
  28. #### 6. Bake the Cookies
  29. - **Bake Time:** Place the cookies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake in the preheated oven for about 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
  30. - **Cooling:** Allow the cookies to cool slightly on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack.
  31. ### Serving and Storage
  32. Serve these thumbprints warm for the best texture. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage. These cookies make excellent gifts or can be enjoyed with your family during festive occasions!
  33. ### Tips for Success
  34. - **Consistency is Key:** Ensure that all ingredients are at the right consistency before mixing.
  35. - **Use Quality Ingredients:** High-quality butter and flour will give you better results.
  36. By following these detailed steps, you'll be able to replicate the 1988 first-place Fay Kuhns thumbprint baked goods. Enjoy this classic treat with your loved ones!
