• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.
6. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
7. Gently press each ball of dough down with the back of a fork to create a criss-cross pattern.
