Rainbow Sprinkle Butter Cookies
These bite-sized Rainbow Sprinkle Butter Cookies are buttery, soft, and coated in crunchy colorful sprinkles. A perfect easy treat for kids and parties!
Ingredients
1 cup butter softened
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup Rainbow Sprinkles
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. You will need 2 baking sheets, but do not line them with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
2. In a large mixing bowl add softened butter and sugar, mixing with a hand mixer until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla and continue to mix until fluffy.
3. Add flour and salt into a large bowl and mix again until cookie dough forms.
4. Separate the cookie dough into 6 balls. On a floured surface, roll each dough ball out into a long rope, about the width of your index finger.
5. Cut dough into 1 inch pieces, and gently roll in a shallow bowl of rainbow sprinkles.
6. Place cookies on baking sheets.
7. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown on bottom. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
Notes
Ensure your butter is truly softened at room temperature for the best texture.
Do not overbake; these should remain pale on top.
Use ‘jimmies’ style sprinkles for the best coverage and crunch.
