- ¾ cup salted butter room temperature
- 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- 1 egg
- 2 tsp corn starch
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup sprinkles
In the bowl of a stand mixer beat butter and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Add in vanilla and the egg and mix until just combined.
While the mixer is on low, add in the corn starch, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and flour until everything is incorporated. Add in the sprinkles and mix on low until just combined.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a medium sized cookie dough scoop 20 even cookies onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and arrange 4-5 dough balls about 2 inches apart. **Optional: right before baking press the tops of the cookie dough balls into more sprinkles!
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges of the cookie are just set. They may seem underdone but they will be perfect! Remove from the oven and if you want perfect circular cookies use a round cookie cutter larger than the cookie to scoot them into a round shape. Let them cool for 5 minutes on the cookie sheet before transferring to a cookie rack to cool completely.
