birthday sugar cookies

Nothing says Happy Birthday like made from scratch birthday sugar cookies with lots and lots of sprinkles! This simple funfetti cookie recipe is fun for all occasions, not just your birthday! Birthday Cake cookies are most certainly the new way to celebrate!

Birthday Cake Cookies

½ c unsalted butter, softened to room temperature

sugar

brown sugar

½ tsp vanilla extract

½ c flour (217 g)

tsp corn starch

tsp baking soda

sea salt

½ c rainbow sprinkles

In a small bowl, combine flour, salt, corn starch and baking soda. Whisk to combine and set aside.

In a separate medium bowl, cream together butter, sugar and brown sugar until light and fluffy. This should take about 2-4 minutes. Add in egg and vanilla and beat to incorporate fully.

Slowly add in the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and beat just to incorporate (do not over mix!) Gently fold in sprinkles. For best results, roll into about 1 to 1 1/2 inch balls and chill for about 15 minutes before baking.

While cookie dough is chilling, preheat oven to 350°F.

Place cookie dough balls/scoops two inches apart on parchment lined cookie sheet.  Bake 9-11 minutes, cookies will be puffed up and may not look 100% done, but pull them just before you think they are done. Allow to cool completely and enjoy. Store in an airtight container for about 3-5 days.

I did change one thing.  Instead of folding the sprinkles into the batter, roll the balls and flatten slightly then press the top of each ball into the sprinkles before baking

Made these exactly as written, except that I used a little less than half a cup of the sprinkles. It just seems like so much. But it wouldn’t have been, and next time I will use an entire half a cup with a little less sprinkles, they are still great, and I can’t wait to give them to the birthday girl recipient today.

Made a double batch of these tonight, kept recipe as is and added a bag of white chocolate chips. They are delicious!!

This cookies are amazing. I weighed my flour and measured everything else. Cookies came out with crispy edges and gooey centers. Definitely recommend this recipe!
