Ingredients

• 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 1 cup Unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 large Egg
• 1.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons Milk
• 0.75 cup Rainbow sprinkles

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar together with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 4

Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture, and mix until fully incorporated.

Step 5

Slowly add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients in batches, alternating with the milk, and mix until a soft dough forms. Avoid overmixing.

Step 6

Gently fold in the rainbow sprinkles until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 7

Using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon, scoop the dough into 1.5-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers should remain soft.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
