Ingredients
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg, at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon almond extract (optional)
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup rainbow sprinkles
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cream Butter and Sugar: Beat softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add Wet Ingredients: Mix in the egg, vanilla, and almond extract (if using) until combined.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually mix into the wet ingredients to form dough.
- Fold in Sprinkles: Gently fold in the sprinkles to avoid color bleeding.
- Shape and Bake: Scoop tablespoon-sized dough portions, roll into balls, and place 2 inches apart on the baking sheet.
- Bake: Bake for 9-11 minutes, until edges are set and centers look slightly underbaked.
- Cool: Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Use high-quality sprinkles to prevent color bleeding.
Chill dough for 30 minutes for firmer cookies if preferred.
Press extra sprinkles onto dough balls before baking for a more vibrant look.
