# What You'll Need:

1/4 cup light brown sugar

1 large egg

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon salt

# Directions:
01 -
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter with granulated sugar and light brown sugar until the mixture is smooth and fluffy using a wooden spoon or hand mixer.
02 -
Blend in the egg, vanilla extract, and mango purée until the batter is thoroughly combined and evenly colored.

In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Fold in chopped dried mango if using.
04 -
Cover the dough and refrigerate for 30 minutes to firm and ensure minimal spreading during baking.
05 -
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared sheet, spacing each mound about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until the edges are lightly golden.

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for several minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Chilling the dough prior to baking enhances flavor and helps the cookies retain their shape.
