sprinkle sugar cookies

My absolute favorite recipe for soft-baked, chewy sprinkle sugar cookies. There won't be a crumb left!

Soft-Baked Sprinkle Sugar Cookies

1 and 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

baking soda

cream of tartar

salt

(150 grams) granulated sugar

egg,

vanilla extract

(80 grams) sprinkles,

Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cream of tartar, and salt together in a medium bowl. Set aside.

In a large bowl using a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter and granulated sugar together on medium-high speed until creamed, about 1 minute. Add the egg and vanilla extract and beat on high speed until combined, about 1 minute. Scrape down the sides and up the bottom of the bowl and beat again as needed to combine.

Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix on low until combined. Beat in 1/2 cup of sprinkles. Dough will be thick and sticky. Scoop large sections of dough (about 2 Tablespoons of dough each) and roll into balls. If desired, lightly dip the tops of the cookie dough balls in more sprinkles. Place dough balls onto a large plate or lined baking sheet.

Cover and chill the cookie dough balls in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours (and up to 4 days).

Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside.

Arrange chilled cookie dough balls 3 inches apart on the baking sheets. Bake for 11-12 minutes or until lightly browned on the sides. The centers will look very soft.

Remove from the oven and allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Cookies stay fresh covered at room temperature for up to 1 week.

These are so good and fun. I made them this time with my 1 Tbs scoop for a smaller size, and they took about 9 minutes. They do come out better in the larger size, the smaller ones are quite thin despite being in the fridge overnight- but still a good proportion to the diameter of that makes sense. But that size is better for school lunches for me! Still delicious!

I made these 7 years ago for my brother in law and he still talks about them to this day lol
So tasty!

Never tried this kind of cookies , but it seems so delicious "Soft-Baked Sprinkle Sugar Cookies". Thanks for sharing this one with us . Will love to try this one

This is my tried and true sugar cookie recipe with the simple addition of sprinkles! This easy sugar cookie recipes makes soft and flavorful, easy to cut cookies that keep their shape beautifully!

Sprinkle Sugar Cookies

all purpose flour

baking powder

non-pareils sprinkles

unsalted butter

sugar

In a large bowl add flour, baking powder and sprinkles.  Whisk together and set aside.

In the bowl of an electric mixer add butter and beat until smooth.

Add sugar and blend until fully combined and fluffy.

Add egg and vanilla and blend.

While mixing, slowly pour in the bowl of flour.

Mix until dough forms and starts pulling away from the sides of the bowl.

Scoop dough out onto a work surface and form into two large balls.  Place balls of dough into a large ziplock bag and press the balls down into thick, flat disk (about an inch thick).  Chill the dough in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.

Roll out dough on a lightly floured work surface.  I place a piece of parchment paper on top of the dough to avoid adding excess flour, and to prevent the dough from sticking to the rolling pin.  Roll out the dough to about 1/3" thickness.  Cut out cookies and bake similar sized cookies together on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silpat type liner.

Bake 8-10 minutes in a preheated 350*F oven.

Cool on the baking sheet for 1-2 minutes, then move to a cooling rack.

Once fully cool, store cookies in a sealed container until ready to decorate.

Cookies remain fresh (when stored well) for at least a week.

Chocolate Sprinkle Sugar Cookies. These chocolate sugar cookies are thin and chewy, and rolled in sprinkles instead of the traditional sugar, which gives them a perfect crunch and super cute rainbow sprinkle finish. These are similar to crinkle cookies, but the sprinkle coating makes them extra cute, and they are so easy to make!

Chocolate Sprinkle Sugar Cookies

all-purpose flour

dutch process cocoa powder

tsp baking soda

unsalted butter,

vanilla bean paste

Sprinkles

Preheat the oven to 350°f / 180°c. Line three baking trays with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.

In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, 3-4 minutes. Add the egg and vanilla, and beat until combined. Add the flour and cocoa mixture, and beat on low until just incorporated.

Using a cookie scoop, scoop 2 tbsp worth of mixture at a time. Roll into a ball using your hands, then roll generously in sprinkles. Place on the baking tray, leaving plenty of room to spread (I had 6 cookies per baking tray).

Bake one tray at a time for 11-12 minutes, until the cookies have puffed up and are beginning to crack on the tops, and the edges are set. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the baking tray for 15 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

These cookies were perfect! I see they freeze well once baked? Wondering if they freeze well raw or do the 100’s and 1000’s go funky?

Super delicious, and quick and easy. A great kids’ lunchbox staple:makes enough to keep some in the freezer for future weeks where there are unexpected visitors or there isn’t weekend baking. Highly recommend! Have made three times now: once with dutch cocoa and twice with regular, which my sweet-toothed children prefer…. Thanks for the recipe!

These are so, so good. I doubled the recipe with the intention to freeze a bunch. Not sure if any will make it to the freezer!

I just made the cookies for a bake sale and they look amazing. Unfortunately I won’t be trying the baked finished product as they so be sold. But the leftover cookie dough and sprinkles were delicious.

Ok. I am not a sprinkle fan but MY WORD, these cookies are perfection. I made a variation without sprinkles or sugar and it needs the crunch - trust the professional here (Erin) there is a reason she added it! 

So quick &amp; delicious and dangerously moreish, I feel ill I've eaten so many in one sitting (standing over the wire rack)! 
Perfection!

So yum and easy to make, they look amazing too. I turned them into ice cream sandwiches and the cold cookies were quite fudgy while still holding their shape well.

So delicious! Super easy! Loved by all (especially my kiwi hubby who also loves fairy bread) to me they taste like a brownie, chewy and crunchy and just perfect, and they look so fun!

Made these delicious sprinkle cookies tonight and they turned out wonderful 🙂.

This is such a fun recipe - yummy too! The cookies are like brownies and rolled in colorful sprinkles which makes it look so fun! The sprinkles add some crunch texture to the cookies. All my friends devoured them!

I made this recipe for a cookie exchange and it is excellent. The dough is so easy to work with and didn’t require chilling time. They turned out beautifully and are so yummy. Thank goodness for weight measurements, they absolute best way to bake!

These are so good! I love how you can make them festive too just by changing the colours of the sprinkles.

Turned out perfectly down to the cracks in the top! The sprinkles were so cute and made them extra special.

These are my vvv fave “quick chocolate fix” cookie. Slightly salty (we use kosher salt at home) and slightly sweet. They’re just perfect and hard to mess up. And the little crunch that the sprinkles add? Yep, you guessed it, also perfect.

these cookies came out just like the picture. Every time I see Erin post a new recipe that grabs my attention. I look at the recipe list, hoping that I have everything in my cabinets to make them that moment it’s because of her I now have vanilla paste and castor sugar on hand at all times. Any of her recipes are sure to impress. And I don’t care that she has painted fingernails.

Super easy to make and very delicious!  Recipe also freezes well (I froze unbaked dough balls).  Thank you, Erin!

I followed the recipe exactly, but the cookies spread all over the pan and did not look like the photo at all. I only gave a star because the flavor was good, but their appearance was too ugly to give as gifts, which I had originally intended them for.

Love love this recipe! It was so easy, but so beautiful when they are done! I made for Valentine’s Day for my daughter’s teachers! They’re super tasty, too!
