Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Celcius. While that is happening, in a bowl, mix flour, baking powder, regular salt, and baking soda nicely and keep it aside.

For the next step, beat the butter, brown sugar, sugar and powdered sugar in a bowl until you get a fluffy consistency. To this mixture, add egg yolks, egg and the vanilla extract and beat them again until you have a fluffier consistency.
