  • 2 eggs

  • 3 ½ cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream butter and shortening together until well combined and fluffy.
  • Add brown and white sugars and beat until lighter in color and fluffy.
  • Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add pure vanilla extract, mix thoroughly.
