These are soft, delicious, melt-in-your-mouth sugar cookies rolled in sprinkles for an added oomph of fun!
Serves: 2½ dozen
Ingredients
  • 2 ½ cups all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • ¼ cup cream cheese
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups rainbow sprinkles
Instructions
  1. In a medium bowl combine the flour and baking powder. Set aside.
  2. In the bowl of an electric mixer add the butter, cream cheese, and sugars. Mix on medium until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
  3. Beat in the egg and vanilla.
  4. Add the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
  5. Transfer dough to a sealed container and refrigerate for 1 hour (up to 48 hours).
  6. When ready to bake preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line cookie sheets with parchment paper.
  7. Roll the cookie dough into small balls, about 1-1 ½ inches in diameter, then roll the balls in the sprinkles.
  8. Evenly space the cookie dough balls on the cookie sheet and press each down just slightly with either your fingers or a glass until they are in the shape of small disks (but not too flat!).
  9. Bake for 10 minutes. Let cookies sit on the pan for 1-2 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely.
