Funfetti Cookie Recipe

INGREDIENTS

• 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (300g)
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon fine salt
• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened to room temperature (227 g)
• 2/3 cup granulated sugar (130g)
• 3/4 cup powdered sugar (85g)
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup sprinkles (or up to 2/3 cup)

INSTRUCTIONS

1. 1 Preheat oven to 350°F/180°C. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
2. 2 In a medium bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3. 3 In a mixer bowl fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter, granulated sugar, and powdered sugar on medium-low speed for 4 minutes. Beat in egg and vanilla extract just until combined.
4. 4 Add flour mixture and beat just until combined. Mix in sprinkles. Do not overmix.
5. 5 Shape dough into balls, the size of 1.5 tablespoons each (I use a small ice cream scoop for portioning), and place on the cookie sheets, spacing them 2-inches apart.
6. 6 Bake for 11-12 minutes until cookies just begin to brown at the edges, but the center is still soft (you don't want to overbake them). Note: Baking time varies per oven and size of cookie dough balls.
7. 7 Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5-10 minutes, then gently transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
