Servings: 2 dozen
Cost: $6
Ingredients
- ¾ cup (170g) unsalted butter (or butter flavored Crisco or vegan butter sticks)
- ¾ cup (150g) granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon almond extract (optional)
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon cream of tartar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 cups (248g) all purpose flour
- 1 cup sprinkles (any color for any holiday or use rainbow)
- 8 ounces (226g) baking chocolate white or semi-sweet, optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper or silpat baking mats.
- Whisk together flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- Cream butter and sugar with a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or you may use a hand mixer). Once the mixture is creamed and fluffy (about 2-3 min), mix in the egg and vanilla and almond extracts until smooth, then mix in the dry ingredients until smooth, then stir in the sprinkles.
- Scoop balls of cookie dough (2 Tablespoons each), and place them 2-inches apart on the prepared cookie sheets. Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until the bottoms just start to turn golden brown. (These taste better if you err on the side of under rather than over done). Cool at least 5 minutes on cookie sheet before removing.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 1 month.
