The simple vanilla cookie batter starts with just a few ingredients, has a seriously straightforward method, and gets rolled in sprinkles for a result that practically bursts with joy. It’s like a party in a cookie! These cookies are great as a cake alternative at a birthday, perfect to celebrate a holiday, or just an easy option to make on any day you feel like baking. 

You Need: 

To Make:

  1. Line a half sheet pan or cookie sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

  2. Place all ingredients, except the sprinkle, into a bowl. Use a clean hand to mix together to form a dough. Press the butter through your fingers to break it up and incorporate it into the flour. (Or, you can put the ingredients into a food processor and pulse to combine.) You shouldn't see any large pieces of butter. If the dough is a little crumbly, be sure it's throughly combined and if it's still crumbly at all, add ½-1 tablespoon additional milk until it comes together. The dough should be moist, but still easy to roll into balls.

  3. Add the sprinkles to a separate small bowl. 

  4. Portion out 1 tablespoon balls of dough using a measuring spoon. Roll into a smooth ball in your hand then roll in the sprinkles to coat all sides. 

  5. Place onto the prepared baking sheet. Press down lightly to make the cookie about about ½-inch thick. Repeat to make the rest of the cookies.

  6. Place the pan into the fridge to chill while you preheat the oven to 375°F.

  7. Bake for 12-16 minutes, or until lightly browned on the bottom of each cookie and set around the edges. 

  8. Remove from the oven and let cool completely on the pan.
