Ingredients

• 115 grams unsalted butter, softened
• 100 grams granulated sugar
• 50 grams light brown sugar, packed
• 1 piece large egg
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 190 grams all-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoons baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 50 grams rainbow sprinkles
• 75 grams chocolate chips (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar until smooth and fluffy, about 2 minutes.

Step 3

Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl, and mix until well combined.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing.

Step 6

Fold in the rainbow sprinkles and chocolate chips (if using) until evenly distributed.

Step 7

Transfer the dough to the prepared baking sheet and form it into a large, evenly-shaped circle about 1.5 cm (½ inch) thick.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set.

Step 9

Allow the cookie to cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Once cooled, decorate the cookie as desired with icing, additional sprinkles, or candles for a festive touch. Slice and serve!
