Ingredients
 

  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup cornstarch cornflour in the UK
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup unsalted butter at room temperature
  • 1 ¼ cups granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs at room temperature
  • 2 egg yolks at room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup sprinkles

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) or 160°C fan oven. Line the cookie sheets with parchment paper or spray them with non-stick spray. Set aside.
  • In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstrach, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, using a stand mixer or a hand mixer, beat the room temperature butter and granulated sugar until smooth and well combined.
  • Add the whole eggs, egg yolks, and vanilla extract to the mixture. Blend well.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the mixture. Mix thoroughly, scraping the sides of the bowl to ensure even mixing.
  • Shape the dough into balls using a 2-inch cookie scoop. Place the sprinkles in a shallow bowl. Roll each dough ball in the sprinkles until fully covered.
  • Gently flatten the dough balls into disk shapes and arrange them on the prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden but the centers remain soft and chewy. Avoid overbaking to prevent the cookies from becoming too hard.
  • Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • If you're using salted butter, cut down on the added salt to keep the flavor just right.
  • Try out different sprinkle colors to match the theme of your event or season.
  • Let the cookies cool down completely on the baking sheet to avoid breaking them when moving.
  • Keep the cookies in an airtight container to stay fresh for up to 3 days or you can freeze them for up to 3 months.
