Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, mix flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat butter, sugars, vanilla, and vinegar until smooth. Beat in the egg just until combined.

Notes
- Use a medium cookie scoop for regular size cookies.
- For softer cookies, do not overbake; centers should look slightly underdone.
