Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup rainbow sprinkles
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture, mixing just until combined.
- Gently fold in the rainbow sprinkles, being careful not to overmix.
- Drop rounded tablespoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
Helpful Tips
- Variation: Add white chocolate chips for an extra layer of sweetness.
- Storage: Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. For longer storage, freeze them in a single layer on a baking sheet before transferring to a freezer bag.
- Substitution: If you don’t have unsalted butter, use salted butter and reduce the added salt to ⅛ teaspoon.
Pairings
These cookies pair wonderfully with a cold glass of milk, a warm cup of cocoa, or even a refreshing glass of lemonade for those sunny days. They also make a colorful addition to any dessert table alongside a classic vanilla cake or fruits and dips platter.
