1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter , softened
1 cup ricotta cheese
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
Optional Toppings:
Chocolate chips or chunks
Crushed cannoli shells (store-bought or homemade)

Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Preheat Your Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) . Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats for easy cleanup.
2. Cream the Butter and Sugar
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy. This step ensures a tender cookie texture.
3. Add Wet Ingredients
Beat in the egg, followed by the vanilla extract and ricotta cheese. Stir until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring no lumps of ricotta remain.
Pro Tip: If the batter feels too thick, add a splash of milk (about 1–2 tablespoons) to achieve the desired consistency.
