Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup rainbow sprinkles (jimmies preferred)
- 2 tablespoons nonpareil sprinkles (optional, for extra color)
Instructions
- Preheat oven and prepare baking sheet: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cream butter and sugar: In a large bowl, cream the softened butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.
- Combine wet ingredients: Add the egg and vanilla extract, and beat until well combined.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Combine wet and dry ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Add sprinkles: Fold in the sprinkles gently to avoid color bleeding.
- Bake: Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10–12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Cool: Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For bakery-style cookies, chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking.
- You can also add white chocolate chips or almond extract for variation.
