Did you know that yesterday was National Cookie Day?
Luke's favorite cookie are my Sprinkle Sugar Cookies and the past week he has been asking if we could make them. I thought it would be fun to make them with Christmas Sprinkles, so in honor of National Cookie Day, I thought I would share this version with you guys!
Here is what you need:
3/4 cup butter, at room temperature ( 1 1/2 sticks of butter)
1 cup sugar
1 egg, plus 1 yolk
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 (3.4 ounce packet instant vanilla pudding mix)
2 cups flour
1/4 cup sprinkles, plus additional sprinkles for rolling
1 egg, plus 1 yolk
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 (3.4 ounce packet instant vanilla pudding mix)
2 cups flour
1/4 cup sprinkles, plus additional sprinkles for rolling
Directions:
Mix the softened butter and sugar on medium speed for 2 minutes.
***Tip: I keep 1-2 vanilla beans in my sugar container. It makes the sugar have a nice vanilla flavor. I have been doing this for almost 10 years. I replace the vanilla beans every year or so.***
Add in the egg, vanilla, baking soda and salt. Mix until combined.
Add the dry pudding mix:
Mix on low for about 1 minute:
Add in the 2 cups of flour and mix for 2-3 minutes on low until combined.
Now, it's SPRINKLE TIME!
Mix in 1/4 cup sprinkles:
We love the non-perils Sprinkles, but you can use any type of sprinkle you want.
Chill the dough in the fridge for 1 hour.
After your dough has been chilled, use a cookie scoop to make balls of dough & roll them after you scoop them.
THIS is the cookie scoop I use.
These are Luke's favorite cookies & he really likes sprinkles, so after I scoop the cookies into balls, I roll them in MORE sprinkles!
You can never have too many Sprinkles :)
This recipe makes 2 dozen cookies.
I hope you enjoy these cookies as much as we do!
And, a reminder that I have a $250 Amazon Gift Card Giveaway going on!
Hope you have a great Monday!
