  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 large egg

  3. In a large bowl, cream together butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until a soft dough forms. Add a splash of milk if the dough feels too dry.
  6. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls.
  7. Roll each dough ball in chocolate or rainbow sprinkles until fully coated.
  8. Place on the baking sheet, spacing about 2 inches apart.
  9. Bake for 9–11 minutes, until edges are set and centers are soft.
  10. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

No chilling required—quick and easy to prepare.Use jimmies instead of nonpareils to avoid bleeding colors and ensure better coating.Add chocolate chips or espresso powder for a richer flavor.Use themed sprinkles to match holidays or events.Cookies freeze well and reheat nicely in the microwave for a fresh-out-of-the-oven feel.
