Total Time: 25 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 24 cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup rainbow sprinkles
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy, approximately 3-4 minutes.
- Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture, beating until well combined and smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt to ensure even distribution of leavening agents.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the dough.
- Gently fold in the white chocolate chips and rainbow sprinkles using a spatula, distributing them evenly throughout the cookie dough.
- Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look slightly soft.
- Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
Tips
- Room Temperature Ingredients: Ensure your butter is softened to room temperature for easier creaming with the sugars, resulting in a light and fluffy cookie dough.
- Don’t Overmix: When combining the dry ingredients with the wet mixture, mix until just combined to keep your cookies tender. Overmixing can lead to tough cookies.
- Chill the Dough: For thicker cookies, consider chilling the dough for 30 minutes before baking. This helps prevent spreading and enhances the flavors.
- Even Baking: Rotate your baking sheets halfway through the baking time to ensure even cooking, especially if your oven has hot spots.
- Storage: Store your cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. For longer freshness, you can freeze them for up to 3 months—just thaw before enjoying!
