Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.

Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until edges are golden brown.
Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
