Ingredients
- 1 ¼ cup salted butter melted, room temperature. You can use unsalted as well!
- 1 cup light brown sugar packed
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 eggs room temperature
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp corn starch
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- ¾ cup white chocolate chips
- ⅓ cup red white and blue sprinkles
- ½ cup extra sprinkles for decorating
Instructions
- In the bowl of a stand mixer combine melted butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar and vanilla. Mix on low until combined. While the mixer is on low add in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the dry ingredients. Remove the bowl from the stand and use a rubber spatula to gently mix in the white chocolate chips and sprinkles.
- Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and scoop 24 even dough balls. Press each dough ball into sprinkles. Cover with clear wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes, but up to 24 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 350°. Space 5 cookie dough balls about 2 inches a part and bake for 11-12 minutes, or until the edges golden brown and just set. Leave the rest of the cookie dough in the refrigerator until needed.
- These cookies will spread! As soon as the cookies come out of the oven use a round cookie cutter or glass to gently reshape the cookies into perfect circles. Place the cookie cutter over the cookie and gently scoot it around until the cookie melds into a circular shape.gently press in 4-5 extra white chocolate chips on top. Let cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before gently transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely. Feel free to top with additional white chocolate chips and sprinkles for garnish while the cookies are warm!
