- Add the baking soda, baking powder, salt, and flour; mix until smooth. Cover the bowl and refrigerate the dough for at least 2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease two baking sheets, or line with parchment.
- Scoop out balls of equal size.
- Bake the cookies for 13 minutes, until the edges just begin to brown. Remove them from the oven and let them cool on the pan for 10 minutes. Tasty!
