Cream butter and sugars: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, margarine, sugar, and brown sugar until fluffy and well combined.

Add eggs and vanilla: Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then, mix in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.

Form cookie dough: Using a tablespoon or a 1 ounce ice cream scoop, drop spoonfuls of cookie dough onto prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
-
Flatten cookies: Press each ball of dough gently with the bottom of a glass to flatten them slightly.
-
Bake: Place the baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake for 16-18 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown around the edges.
-
Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 2 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.

Serve and Enjoy!: These cookies are delicious for breakfast alongside a cup of coffee or tea, or as a snack with a glass of milk and a piece of fruit.
