Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup rainbow sprinkles
- 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
Leavening Agents:
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Seasonings:
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and line baking sheets with parchment paper, ensuring even heat distribution and easy cookie removal.
- Sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium mixing bowl to eliminate potential lumps and create a uniform dry ingredient base.
- Cream butter and granulated sugar in a separate large bowl using an electric mixer, whipping until the mixture becomes pale and fluffy, incorporating air for a lighter texture.
- Gently introduce eggs one at a time into the butter mixture, blending thoroughly after each addition to maintain a smooth consistency, then incorporate vanilla extract for enhanced flavor.
- Gradually fold dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring until just combined to prevent overworking the dough, which could result in tough cookies.
- Carefully integrate colorful sprinkles into the cookie dough, distributing them evenly throughout without disrupting the delicate batter structure.
- Portion the dough into generously sized balls using a cookie scoop, placing them approximately two inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
- Lightly press down on each cookie ball to create a slightly flattened shape, promoting even baking and an attractive appearance.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, watching for subtle golden edges while maintaining a soft, tender center characteristic of classic confetti cookies.
- Allow cookies to rest on the baking sheet for a few minutes to stabilize, then transfer to a wire cooling rack to complete the cooling process.
Notes
- Ensure butter is softened at room temperature for smooth, even mixing without overmixing the dough.
- Choose high-quality, vibrant sprinkles for maximum color and festive appearance in the cookies.
- Slightly underbake the cookies to maintain a soft, chewy center that melts in your mouth.
- For gluten-free option, swap all-purpose flour with a 1:1 gluten-free baking blend to keep the same texture and taste.
