Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup sprinkles for rolling

Method
 

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
    Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
      Add egg and vanilla extract, mixing until combined.
        In another bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, and salt, then gradually add to the wet mixture.
          Scoop dough into balls and roll in sprinkles to coat.
            Place on baking sheet with space between each cookie.
              Bake for 10–12 minutes until edges are set and centers are slightly soft.
                Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring.

                  Notes

                  Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Chill dough if it becomes too soft. Do not overbake to keep cookies soft and chewy.
