These copycat cookies recreate the thick, bakery-style treats made famous by the Crumbl chain, with a soft, buttery center and a slightly crisp edge. Each batch comes together in under an hour and can be customized with different frosting flavors. They are sized generously, so one or two cookies goes a long way.
Cream the softened butter and granulated sugar together in a large mixing bowl using an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract until combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
Baking the Cookies:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Drop tablespoon-sized dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges start to turn golden brown.
Remove from the oven and allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack to cool completely.

Notes
For a more authentic texture, use a higher-quality vanilla extract or consider adding a drop of almond extract for a subtle flavor twist.
For dietary adaptations, replace all-purpose flour with a 1-to-1 gluten-free blend.
