Sprinkles Sugar Cookies
Easy, buttery, chewy sugar cookies loaded with colourful sprinkles. This is the best sugar cookie recipe and is so easy to make. No chilling time and they taste amazing!
Ingredients
- 2 cups flour
- 1/2 cup cake flour or another 1/2 cup regular flour
- 2 Tbsp dry milk powder*
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup butter room temperature
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup light brown sugar packed
- 1 egg
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 tsp white vanilla extract**
- 1 tsp almond extract***
- 1/2 cup rainbow sprinkles plus more for topping
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 350.
- Combine the flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl and mix well. Set aside.
- In an electric mixer cream the butter sugar and brown sugar until very light and fluffy - about 5 minutes on medium-high speed.
- Add the egg, egg yolk, vanilla and almond. Mix very well again.
- Add in the flour mixture and mix until just combined.
- Fold in the sprinkles.
- Scoop onto parchment lined baking sheets (I use a 2 1/2 Tbsp scoop), rolling the top and sides of each dough ball into more sprinkles first, if desired.
- Flatten the cookies slightly with a glass or your hand.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes.
