Method
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Whisk together until well blended.
- In a separate large bowl, cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together using an electric mixer until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract. Continue mixing until well incorporated.
- Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, blending on low speed just until combined. Be careful not to overmix!
- Gently fold in the rainbow sprinkles until just dispersed throughout the dough.
- Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop the dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving about two inches between each cookie.
Baking
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges begin to turn golden. The centers might look slightly undercooked.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. For longer storage, freeze them in a single layer on a baking sheet, then transfer to a zip-top bag; they’ll stay fresh for 2-3 months.
