Instructions
- Prepare Your Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set this aside for now

- Chill the Dough: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the dough for at least 2 hours
- Preheat Oven & Prepare Coating: Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper
- Scoop and Roll: Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of the chilled dough. Roll each portion in granulated sugar, then in confectioners' sugar

- Cool: Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely
Notes
Use gel food coloring for a vibrant color without affecting dough consistency.
Do not skip chilling time for proper crinkle formation.
